I was very surprised to find that the gpsd version in the MeeGo repositories is completely out of date. The release tarball is from 2008-02-17. So we are on 2.37 and the latest is 2.96 (2011-03-21). This obviously creates quite a few problems for people trying to compile modern applications that are using gpsd. This package looks like it got sadly forgotten as the last entry in the changelog is :
* Sat Jan 24 2009 Anas Nashif <[email protected]> 2.37 - Initial import into Moblin So i ported the latest gpsd to home:brendan:branches:Trunk using spectacle and suddenly my opencpn compile errors dissapeared! Are there any valid reasons for using this acient version of GPSD around? Or can I file a bug and make an SR to push this new version to Trunk:Testing? I've tested this new version and it works great with my u-blox GPS.
