Package: geeqie-gps
Version: 1:1.0-7
Severity: important

The GPS features in Geeqie don't work properly. I'm filing this as "important"
as it's against geeqie-gps, and the only reason for that package to exist, as
far as I can see, is to provide the non functional features.

On startup, there is no visiable GPS information for images known to have GPS
metadata in their EXIF tags. Looking into this, the GPS features require
a pane to be enabled in the configuration. If you add this stanza:-

    <pane_gps id = "gps" title = "GPS Map" expanded = "true" height = "350" 
        map-id = "osm-transportmap" 
        zoom-level = "1" 
        latitude = "51390100" 
        longitude = "-306216" 
    />

to the ~/.config/geeqie/geeqierc.xml configuration file, then the GPS pane does
appear in the sidebar, however I am still unable to get it to load an actual map
- all I get is a grey square. There appears to be no method in the GUI to enable
the feature, so the only route to turning it on is hand editing the config file.

Geeqie builds against libchamplain-0.4, and requires this version. Changing the
autoconf setup to configure it against the current libchamplain (0.12) results
in a compilation failure, as the libchamplain API has changed in the meantime.
Other software that uses libchamplain 0.12 (e.g. EOG) works correctly and
displays a map.

This is probably an upstream problem, but the feature appears to be completely
unusable in its current state.
