Description rh hn 2011-06-09 11:33:32 CEST

There are few programs to manage GPS data in Mageia graphically at the moment. Viking could solve this problem.

Created attachment 579 [details]
viking spec file

Hello, I attached spec file adapted from Mandriva package. I guess it could help. Cheers.

Assuming this was packaged - is there anyone willing to test?

Looking at http://live.osgeo.org/en/quickstart/viking_quickstart.html,
it doesn't require a gps device, just some data to plot on a map.

I'll test it, if I can find some sample data, or the format of gpspoint
files, so I can make up some data.

I use it quite regularly, but at this moment, I don't have access to my Mageia machine. For anyone else willing to test, here are some of my tracks: http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/rhn/traces
If no one does this, I'll test it in my workflow within a week.

viking-1.2.1 is now available in Cauldron core.

Please test and report any issues here - thanks.

@ rh hn thanks for the link, I will have a play with your tracks ;)

Comment 6 Barry Jackson 2011-09-24 15:57:06 CEST

Before attempting to run viking - please make sure that you have installed :-
lib(64)gdk_pixbuf2.0_0-loaders-png15
and also make sure that you remove :-
lib(64)gdk_pixbuf2.0_0-loaders-png12
Preferably try to do this in one transaction.
If these exist together then viking will not work and neither will mcc :/
Hopefully this bug will be resolved soon.

Viking works for me - importing GPX, openstreetmap tiles and graphs. Thanks!
