An update for my #30 comments as I've just tried gpsd-2.39-3.fc10.i386 package:

Now, "gpsd" start when my "Keymaze 300" is plugged.

but, It does not exit when I unplug my GPS...
here msg from dmesg and some output of my console.

dmesg
----8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--
pl2303 2-1:1.0: device disconnected
----8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--

----8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--
[root ~]# /etc/init.d/gpsd status
gpsd (pid 8155) is running...

[root at bebe ~]# /etc/init.d/gpsd stop
Stopping gpsd:                                             [  OK  ]
----8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--

How to check / trace is there something wrong in a script ?

Another thing, my "Keymaze 300" is know as a broken device
so I need to start gpds with "-b" option. 
I've updated to the /etc/sysconfig/gpsd file for that.
OPTIONS="-b -n"

Maybe it's a good idea to warn the user (maybe at install time)
that some GPS can be broken using default option (=> link to the man page 
of gpsd, or just a tips like use "-b" for safe session...
