[DebianGIS-dev] Bug#524042: gosmore: build-dep on libgps-dev not needed anymore

[Bernd Zeimetz]

Package: gosmore
Version: 0.0.0.20080704-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

gosmore doesn't use libgps anymore, instead they connect to
gpsd manually and try to parse NMEA data. So the dependency on
libgps-dev should be dropped.

Also you should tell your upstream that *not* using libgps
and trying to parse NMEA limits the number of supported
devices pretty much, and chances are very good that it will
fail in the future.

Cheers,

Bernd
