Re: [Gramps-users] [Gramps-devel] [SOLVED] Re: can't build python-osmgpsmap-0.7.3 into GRAMPS

Rob,

You're right: it's a lot simpler than chasing down the 
invocation of osmgpsmap.
I was a bit dubious, seeing osmgpsmap.la says dependencies 
and installation ought to be in /usr/local directories.
But having deleted the symbolic links and copied the files 
to /usr/lib64....
Geography works fine.


Thanks again,

Doug
