Unable to use GPS location without (temporarily) enabling a "Network-based Geolocation module". #5

Hi.

I would like to use GMaps WV with my location provided by my GPS. I have given "Location Access" to GMaps WV, but when I start GMaps WV and click on the "My Location" button in GMaps WV, the spinner (inside the button) just spins forever and the app never finds my location.

Interestingly, I can work around this problem by installing Déjà Vu and enabling it just long enough for GMaps WV to obtain a GPS fix (which occurs very quickly) - I can then disable Déjà Vu, and GMaps WV continues to update my GPS location despite Déjà Vu (now) being disabled. If I close GMaps WV and re-open it, again it will fail to find my GPS location until I "jump start" it with Déjà Vu.

I think this is a bug because I presume that I do not need to have a "Network-based Geolocation module" enabled in order to get my location via GPS. I might be wrong.

Edit (to add device details):
Device: OnePlus 5T
Rom: LineageOS for microG v18.1 20220516
GMaps WV v1.8
