 no, but that's interesting.

I agree. But for now it's only planned. Patch welcome :)

 Thanks Sebastian.

 The whole point of the thread being : will it be kept up to date ? :)

 Do you see something wrong in using nightly auto builds for SHR?
 
 If only we can be sure about quality of navit svn repo (so it'll be
 buildable every time), we could try to set navit to AUTOREV. But I
 don't think it's needed - as (if only navit guys didn't changed
 everything drasticaly) building new version of navit should be now as
 simple as s/2520/some-newer-revision/ ;)
 
 

My point was to ask if there was any reason for not using AUTOREV.
It's been a while since the last failure for the moko build, and we have a
bot sitting in our channel which gives compilation results in live.

I'm personnaly upgrading navit almost everyday, along with the shr updates.

IMO (but it's only IMO) user pages are better used for personnal notes until
you document something in a 'public' page. Don't be shy, edit the wiki ;)

Also, the icon pack isn't needed anymore : instead you should rather use
icon_s=96 and icon_l=96 (it was posted somewhere, and the default navit.xml
has the right values).

Will do.

 icon_s=96 and icon_l=96 (it was posted somewhere, and the default navit.xml

My layout (direction, announcer) depends on 70px graphics, but I try to change 
it for 96px - but this uses even more space.
Any opinions from someone else if it would be better to use 70 or 96 for OSD? 
For the menu 96 is OK.

Here is a version I put on the wiki with a slightly different layout that uses

A landscape OSD layout could be useful. And are you aware that you can store

It is usable in both modes - I will post screenshots for both. I will also post 
it in navit wiki.
Thanks for the include hint.

Talking about this - do you know if toggle_announcer actually works? I have 
icon and action included but it does not seem to do anything though.
You probably will wait answering this until I have uploaded my xml.

Sorry if the following is getting a bit off topic

Thanks for doing the updates, but current version does not build (qpainter 
error during compile as it is based on qt 4.5.2)
Also could you also please change the .desktop file:

Having set LC_ALL leads to unexpected results concerning GPS coordinates...
Also we could include the navit icons 70px from Kazer [2] from here [1] in 
standard SHR navit package - what do you think?

Well, as a general rule, i would say that using the most recent one
(especially with 200+ commits) is usually a good idea. There are indeed some
new bugs introduced from time to time, but usually commits are done to solve
bugs ;). And in the specific case of navit, usually when something breaks
it's fixed the day after (like this navit.xml path issue).

Now I am back to original navit packages and I am aware this can happen with 
devel versions. I was just a bit unfortunate to get a buggy version in the

But I would still be interested to build navit in a clean way for my SHR (i.e.
