Navit - german localization causes rounding of GPS-position
Hi everybody, I have successfully localized my Navit to speak German I thought. Using SHR on my FR, I have installed every necessary localization packages (i.e. navit-locale-de and locale-base-de-de) and all speed-dispatcher packages. To start Navit I use the navit.sh - script from the wiki. If I use Navit in English (i.e. the main language of SHR is set to EN) or don't use the script, everything works smoothly, the GUI is in English, my GPS-position is found and the speech-dispatcher leads me in English to my destination. But if I set the SHR-Language to DE-de and use the script to start the localized Navit, something goes terribly wrong. The GUI is in German, alright. Spd-say seems to speak German, alright. But one thing is wrong: my GPS-Position! At the moment I'm at 50°59"24 N 09°01"04 E. But Navit thinks I am at 50°59"59 N 8°59"59 E. That's far-off my position! TangoGPS and other GPS-apps report my correct position. If I change the street, for example, nothing changes in Navit. I guess that in the course of localization, the floating-point-number of my position is mangled and thus reported incorrectly to Navit. How can I solve this problem?
