- The geolocation module currently depends on the deprecated jquery_ui_autocomplete module. This dependency introduces maintenance and security concerns, as jQuery UI is no longer maintained and is being phased out from many Drupal installations.
- Removing this dependency will help modernize the codebase and allow for full removal of jQuery UI-related modules, reducing frontend bloat and improving maintainability.
- Enable the geolocation module and configure a field using the Geolocation field type.
- Inspect the enabled modules and dependencies: you'll find jquery_ui_autocomplete is required.
- Attempting to uninstall jQuery UI-related modules fails due to this dependency.
- Refactor the geolocation module to eliminate the use of jquery_ui_autocomplete. This could be done with custom JavaScript that uses core autocomplete support.
Identify where jquery_ui_autocomplete is used in the geolocation module.
Refactor to use Drupal core autocomplete API.
Test existing geolocation field widgets.
