14 * Added support for layered maps. This support is still very
15 experimental, and the potential for crashes is rather large. Still,
16 there is demand for it, so I'm posting it early. By default, layers are
17 disabled, so it should not affect normal users.

103 maemo-mapper (2.1) unstable; urgency=low
105 * Changed GPS interaction to use GPSD exclusively, including the new
106 libgpsmgr framework. This allows Maemo Mapper to automatically find a GPS
107 receiver (no need to specify one in Settings, although Maemo Mapper will
108 try to prefer the one you specify). Hopefully, this will also address the
109 "hanging" issues that people have been having, and it should also make the
110 migration to Chinook easier.
111 * Added an initial stab at supporting the internal GPS receiver on the N810.
112 Use the "File Path" receiver type with "/dev/pgps" to use the N810's
113 internal GPS receiver. ("/dev/pgps" is now the default.)
114 * Added the framework for a DBUS interface, including a single DBUS method
115 (set_view_center). More to come later....

156 * Changed the bluetooth receiver interaction to hopefully be friendlier to
157 more GPS receivers (particularly Holux).
158 * Fixed memory overflow situation when downloading "500 MB" of maps. Maemo
159 Mapper should be able to handle more downloads at a time now, but keep in
160 mind that it's not unlimited. 2 GB of downloads is too much.
161 * Fixed the spurious straight lines in the drawing of tracks and routes.
162 * Fixed bug with not downloading higher-zoom maps when no maps were
163 available in the current zoom level and the current zoom level is not a
164 downloadable zoom level (per the download zoom steps variable).
165 * Fixed crashes that occurred during downloading of many maps at a time.
166 * Fixed corruption of GDBM database when downloading many maps at a time.

209 on the screen while in Auto-download mode.
210 * Modified the Waypoint Notification Window to use a progress bar; this
211 should also fix some of the flicker that used to occur.
212 * Improved the robustness of bluetooth receiver error handling (no more
213 crashing when out of range).
214 * Improved memory utilization.

269 * Added Zoom In/Out buttons to the View menu.

272 * Added a "Double Pixels" option for repositories; if enabled, maps will be
273 shown at a minimum of double the pixel size, for those who don't want to

276 the repository is selectable via the "Select Next Repository" shortcut.
277 * Changed "Track Mark" functionality back to old "Track Break" name.

279 like Track Breaks, except that you can give a description.
