I have no idea.  I don't use apt.

~ # which gpsd
/usr/local/sbin/gpsd

~ # file `which gpsd`
/usr/local/sbin/gpsd: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 
(SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.0.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped

Thanks, Paul and Gary.  I checked and the gpsd is indeed a 32-bit program. 
My new commands for the day learnt!

So why does 3.20 run on a Raspberry Pi 4B and not a 1B?  Has it been tested 
on a 1B?

I ask these questions because many users will not attempt github and just 
expect things to work.  The want to run program and not develop or debug 
them.  They use apt or apt-get to install software, not compile it.

Cheers,
David
