I can look at your build log if you wish.  Otherwise, I'm just guessing.

My advice: just remove gpsd from systemd control. 
I think you just need to:

    rm /lib/systemd/system/gpsd.socket
    rm /lib/systemd/system/gpsd.service
    reboot

Or, read the gpsd instructions on systemd(umpkopf) and see if you can
make it work as intended.  Or maybe a systemd user will show up and be
helpful.

If you figure out how to tame that daemon spawner, let us know.
