GPSD-NG, the new JSON-based command protocol, is now deployed; as a
consequence, AIS is now fully supported in both daemon and client.
Detection of end of a fix-reporting cycle is now reliable;
accordingly data is accumulated from cycle start and the "J"
(nojitter) opoption on both server and client side is gone. We have
abandoned the gpsflash subproject since it has become apparent that
we can't do it without more vendor cooperation than we're likely to
get. Increase major version of shared library due to significant API
change. Added new driver for Motorola Oncore receivers, with help
from Håkan Johansson. gpsfake can now accept multiple logfiles,
interleaving test sentences from each. gpsd now accepts error
estimates from the NMEA $GPGBS sentence.
pkgsrc changes:

Shared directories can now be created independently by the pacakges
needing them and will be removed automatically by pkg_delete when empty.
Packages needing empty directories can use the @pkgdir command in PLIST.

This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.
plot tracks and waypoints, show Open Street Maps and/or Terraserver maps under
it, download geocaches for an area on the map, make new tracks and waypoints,
see real-time GPS position, etc.
In the patched Makefile, switch on NEEDS_STRLCPY instead of OPSYS,
because OPSYS isn't defined in my world (vanilla netbsd-5 on i386),
and I can't find any reason it should be.
Add a comment to the patch explaining why the install: target was
removed, and about NEEDS_STRLCPY.
localhost) were merged upstream.
* Tue Feb 10 Eric S. Raymond <esr@snark.thyrsus.com> - 2.38
Regression test load for RoyalTek RGM3800 and Blumax GPS-009 added.
Scaling on E error-estimate fields fixed to match O. Listen on
localhost only by default to avoid security problems; this can be
overridden with the -G command-line option. The packet-state machine
can now recognize RTCM3 packets, though support is not yet complete.
Added support for ublox5 and mkt-3301 devices. Add a wrapper around
gpsd_hexdump to save CPU. Lots of little fixes to various packet
parsers. Always keep the device open: "-n" is not optional any more.
xgpsspeed no longer depends on Motif. gpsctl can now ship arbitrary
payloads to a device. It's possible to send binary through the
control channel with the new "&" command. Experimental new driver
for Novatel SuperStarII. The 'g' mode switch command now requires,
and returns, 'rtcm104v2' rather than 'rtcm104'; this is design forward
for when RTCM104v2 is fully working.

patches/patch-ac.)
to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.8.8 -> 5.10.0.
The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,
or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via
"make show-vars VARNAMES=...").

- SVG support updates (from Marco Hugentobler)
patches to add it). Drop pax from the default USE_TOOLS list.
Make bsdtar the default for those places that wanted gtar to extract
long links etc, as bsdtar can be built of the tree.
- assume that Python 2.4 and 2.5 are compatible and allow checking for
fallout.

default. Modify the others to deal with the removals.

These are mostly ABI breaking changes.
In few cases the API also changed, but the most external one
(the documented one) should be unchanged.

- Moved source/bigtest and source/test to tests/bigtest
and test/xmltester

pkg-description:
cmconvert is used to convert EasyGPS XML file formats (LOC and GPX)
to a format that can be installed onto a Palm OS device and imported
into CacheMate. Options are also available to list waypoints contained
in an XML file, and selectively convert specified waypoints.
- ok'ed by joerg
pkg-description:
cm2gpx is used to convert Palms CacheMate backup or import PDB
files to equivalent GPX files. Extensions specific to
Geocaching.com and CacheMate are automatically used as needed.
Filter options are available, to selectively convert waypoints.
- Integrated Garmin Simple Text Protocol driver from Peter Slansky.
Minor fixes in error modeling and a better NaN guard stabilize the
Trimble regression tests. Remove the wired-in NTP time offset from the
NMEA driver, this could only have worked by accident and should be
set in ntpd.conf. Integrated Ashtech driver from Chris Kuethe.
- Navcom driver merged. Removed -d -f and -p options of gpsd; these
have been undocumented for a while. Make gpsd play well with pkgconfig.
Incorrect computation of VDOP when GPSes didn't supply it has been fixed.
The xgps code has been revamped and now has a much nicer interface.
Add -b (no-configuration) option as a sadly clumsy workaround for some
problems with Bluetooth receivers. Added tests for Haicom-305N and Pharos
360; separated out the tests for the unstable Trimble drivers.
32-vs-64-bit problems in the regression tests have been solved.
- Fix for byte-swapping of Zodiac control messages on big-endian hardware.
Disable iTalk by default and note that it needs to be tested. Command line
arguments can now be DGPSIP or NTRIP URLs; -d is deprecated. Added udev
rules. Address excessive processor and memory utilization on SBCs; it's
now possible to configure compile-time limits on the number of devices
and client sessions. Eliminate use of fuser(1) in gpsfake. Get gpsd
working with EarthMates again, this had been broken since 2.15. Massive
string safety audit and OpenBSD port by Chris Kuethe. J command added.
The gpsctl and gpscat tools and the gpsd.phps script were added. Switched
to lesstif from openmotif. Better autodetection of DLE-led packet
protocols (notably TSIP and Garmin binary) and of SiRFStar I and III
devices. Fixed buggy parsing and generation of PGRME.
PostGIS 1.3.2
2007/12/01
- Improvements in the TIGER geocoder
- Fix to ST_EndPoint() crasher bug
- Modified ST_AsGML() improving v2 and adding v3 support
- Fix to ensure ST_Envelope() returns valid geometries
- Change JDBC build to use Ant
- Fix for better OS/X support
- Fix to WKB parser to do simple validity checks
1.8.3 (svn revision 146):
* fixed bug in Geod class that caused erroneous error message
"undefined inverse geodesic (may be an antipodal point)".
* fix __reduce__ method of Geod class so instances can be pickled.
* make sure points outside projection limb are set to 1.e30 on inverse
transform (if errcheck=False).
* fixed small setup.py bug.
* generate C source with Cython 0.9.6.6 (pycompat.h no longer needed).
then automatically generate a PLIST that says "${PKGNAME} has no files".
* If PLIST_SRC and GENERATE_PLIST are not set in a package Makefile,
and no PLIST files exist, then fail during the package build with
PKG_FAIL_REASON.
* Remove "intentionally empty" PLISTs again.
Now, the easy way to say that a package installs no files is to just
add the following to the package Makefile:
PLIST_SRC= # empty
that directly manipulate empty PLISTs.
Modify plist/plist.mk so that if the PLIST files are missing and no
GENERATE_PLIST is defined, then the package fails to build.
format to another, whether that format is a common mapping
format like Delorme, Streets and Trips, or even a serial
or USB upload or download to a GPS receiver such as those
from Garmin and Magellan.
Imported from wip.
The template_gis implementation has a number of problems, including
only working on Debian GNU/Linux. Upstream has removed it from the
default install, so this commit declines to put it back and removes
all the prefix/path fixes applied to it.
Add MAKE_JOBS_SAFE=no.
