yes, I'm doing that since libgps12 or so and never had a transition that
was not smooth.
gpsd upstream (including myself, who is doing a lot of testing before a
release actually happens) is sane and as long as people use documented
stuff from libgps.h they are safe as long as there is not api breakage
announced.

done that just for you, but excluding the KDE stuff which builds for way
too long - yes, all thing just build fine.
