Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

hmm... for ex. Russia is multilingual country, but subjects have their own flags...

It's possible use icon from @olf, but maybe add an Arabic or other character?

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

Haven't heard about this problem before. Would you mind to start the server from terminal and paste stdout?

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

As for icons - maybe we are overthinking it. In the end, its not that frequent users are navigating in the server. If we do go for 3-line flag, I'd prefer to get medium grey on top, darker gray in the middle, and white on the bottom. Just for personal geo-reasons :)

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

But then the medium gray top stripe of the first flag borders to the medium gray, second flag along the whole width of the flags.
What about dark gray on top, white in the middle and medium gray at the bottom?

P.S.: While it will be unavoidable that any combination of three grayscale, horizontal stripes on a flag will look similar to a specific country's flag, avoiding combinations akin to the most common country flags makes sense.

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

I checked for zlib and I have devel version offered by pkcon, but it's 1.2.11 ... (incidentally, zlib site says "Due to the bug fixes, any installations of 1.2.9 or 1.2.10 should be immediately replaced with 1.2.11...)

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

Next suggestion:

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

Looks nice, thank you! Maybe too much details on device, but that we can see when trying...

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

I will upload the SVGs tomorrow. Have to make some smaller corrections before.

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

These are nice!

Minor nitpicking:
- In icon #2, the gaps in the folder's top line to the left and right of the arrow head do not look equally sized.
- In icon #3, both gaps in the folder's top line (to the left and right of the globe) seem to be equally sized, but smaller than either corresponding gap in icon #2.
- Suggestion: Make all four gaps the same size, preferably (IMO) using the biggest extant gap (the one to the right of the arrow head in icon #2).

HTH

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

Ok made some smaller changes and tried to react on olf's nitpicking, which isn't so easy, because if I really choose the same gapsize everywhere it doesn't look right. It simply looks different if you have the same distance to a vertical line or to a diagonal.

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

I love the three flags with the globe. A nice politically neutral compromise yet clear what it means.

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

Nice, and I agree with pichlo that the globe flag is a good idea. Still, I'd say the corners should be rounded/softer. Take a look at all of the rectangular icons in Sailfish Settings for example, they have an ideal amount of curvature and I find them to be aesthetically pleasing.

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

@Fellfrosch - thank you very much! I have added the icons and rescaled them to the same width (64 px). The current version is available at https://github.com/rinigus/osmscout-...icons/fallback

The icons will be visible in desktop versions for now. They are not suitable for Sailfish due to relatively thick lines. For example, for Pure Maps, we have separate versions of icons for desktop and SFOS - just due to different icon styles. However, even now, SFOS version does look fine (or I am used to it).

Right now, it turns out, language and mapnik/mapbox global even never show up in gui with icon. Sorry for it, its due to the non-selectivity of these datasets (they are forced on users if needed). Maybe I should add some element in future just to use these icons!

We are still missing banner - for reference, Pure Maps is at https://github.com/rinigus/pure-maps...ons/banner.jpg . Any takers / ideas?

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

New update is our: 1.14.2

For SFOS, this is mainly update for translations and improving backend selection GUI (thanks @olf for feedback and discussion!). For desktop, we have new icons by @Fellfrosch. Corresponding flatpak is still building, but I hope it will be out later today (never 100% sure due to a bit moody infra involved in this process).

I have a bad news regarding map updates. On the server where I am performing map imports, I have been hitting a kernel panic what looks to be induced by heavy I/O. Right now I am scrubbing filesystem and will try again after rechecking software. Don't expect it to be ready next week, probably would take 2-3 weeks from now.

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

Now that Fellfrosch did the hard work nicely, i could rework the agreed upon symbols into sailfish style line thickness and spacing if that is really wanted.
Would take some days though and thus i ask to avoid double work.

Banner simply like?

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

Both banners are great - my vote would go for the sandy one.

As for icons, please take the ones from https://github.com/rinigus/osmscout-...icons/fallback as a reference before Sailfishifying them. We are talking 'bout country-*, globe, incompatible-verison, and language. The rest is used by Kirigami internally and is included to cover the case with the user's theme not having them.

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

Sorry to be a bug - I guess I'm the only one... I tried clearing configuration, uninstalling / reinstalling, clearimg cache, reboot, etc., and I can't get it to accept any custom directory, in /home or in sdcard. Unless I select 'create default directory', it jist stays on that screen, and won't let me go further. I guess I'll just use it like that for now...

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

As far as I can see, you get an error with ZLIB (your prev post). I have not heard anyone else reproducing your issue nor I cannot reproduce it on 3.0.1 nor 3.0.2. 3.0.3 is not available on OBS (so I cannot build the server) nor for Onyx (so I cannot test it). Thus, all I can do is to rely on others for testing.

When you select default folder, does everything work?

When you select some other folder, is its name shown correctly in Settings?

I presume that you created a folder by file browser and then selected it in the server by holding for longer time the folder and pressing select then in context menu. Right?

ZLIB error - does it come before you do anything or when you choose folder?

PS: don't be sorry for trying to make it working :)

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

or maybe? https://images.pexels.com/photos/419...gb&dpr=2&w=500

or other non-political map/globe ;-)

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

I like this.

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

Me too on 3.0.3.9 geminipda. ZLIB_1.2.9 not found (required by /usr/lib/libpng16.so.16). Cannot start osm-scoutserver from terminal, because of this error. I think this is the reason why the autostart with puremaps is not working.

But I still have maps in custom location stored and it looks like osmscout-server is working if I start it from GUI.

Edit: After reading backward, you know it already from MartinK ("this post") and later levone1.

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

There is still no 3.0.3 OBS target - hence we have to wait. See https://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?...&postcount=597

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

Uninstalled everything, deleted cache, data, and config files, formatted sd card, and started all over and custom directory working fine now... I still get zlib erroe in terminal, but seems like server is running fine, based on Pure Maps behavior. I think libpng needs an update on SF, because the error is Zlib has been updated, but libpng is still looking for the old version ...

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

So, just out of curiosity, i built zlib 1.2.9, and replaced all of my zlib/libz files with the 1.2.9 files, and I still get the same message, and also output of 'rpm -qi zlib' still shows 1.2.11. Not sure how I can change it...

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

seems like the target is here now....
see https://build.merproject.org/project...fishos:3.0.3.9

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

@P@t: thanks for heads up! There are few unresolvable errors I have to look into. Current status at https://build.merproject.org/project...e:rinigus:maps

Those with 3.0.3.x, can try to install

- osmscout-server
- mapboxgl-qml

from 3.0.3.9 repository. Will be made available as soon as I will resolve the issues and build will complete.

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

Same here. When I try to run OSMScout-server from terminal in Sailfish 3.0.3.9 I get:

If I run directly from icon in GUI, everything seems to run fine.

Hope you can find a solution. Thanks!

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

I am mainly looking fr solution that would allow me to use the same RPM SPEC file to compile for 3.0.3.x and 3.0.2.x. If impossible, will have to make a new version of SPEC and go for that.

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

Isn't 3.0.3 available for all devices? I can see no drawbacks to update to 3.0.3 over 3.0.2, so why make an effort to keep it supported on <= 3.0.2? Perhaps I'm egoistic now, but I'd prefer having a working osm scout server on my 3.0.3 device, than having a working version on someone else's <3.0.3 device :o

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

I understand that line of thought perfectly, it just happens that <3.0.3 is my device - onyx :) . for unofficial devices, porting started few days ago and, as far as I can see, there are no success stories yet.

I'll see if I get a good solution on Monday via mailing list. If not, will have to make it "ugly"

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

That is really an egoistic view.
I updated and immediately was greeted by a 'failed' message and not starting device. So I do fully understand why people do not go newest asap or at all (staying with SFOS1 erm 2 UI, or whatever reason). Or, as rinigus, look at the ports for other devices.

Nevertheless: main concentration should be (always?) on newest OS version, I agree.

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

The problem with releasing on newest OS version is a lack of testing it by myself. I don't have any official device and test on my onyx. In the end, I will have to rely on fast and constructive feedback by others with 3.0.3.x until we get with @kimmoli onyx port updated to 3.0.3.x as well

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

Pekka Vuorela from Jolla suggested a great solution to my issue with ICU dependency and it allowed me to use the same (and better) RPM SPEC files for 3.0.2.x and 3.0.3.x SFOS versions. As it can be seen at https://build.merproject.org/project...e:rinigus:maps , we have all versions ready.

In addition to dependency changes, I dropped few libs from bundling with the application:

- libz
- libicu*

The latter one reduced RPM size significantly and would be interesting to learn if it causes any issues.

Before upgrades: Please uninstall OSM Scout Server and check that nothing has remained at /usr/share/harbour-osmscout-server . If there is anything left there after uninstall, please remove this folder. Its a remains from older installations that are not needed anyway.

For 3.0.3.x users: Please download and install harbour-osmscout-server from

http://repo.merproject.org/obs/home:...mv7hl/armv7hl/

or

http://repo.merproject.org/obs/home:...est_i486/i486/

depending on your ARCH.

If I get positive feedback from testers using 3.0.3.x, I may upload the new version to OpenRepos.

Note that 3.0.3.x users may also test mapboxgl-qml package from the same repo - this is Mapbox GL QML plugin used by Pure Maps and Laufhelden.

For 3.0.2.x users: Use OpenRepos version or, if you wish to test, version from http://repo.merproject.org/obs/home:...mv7hl/armv7hl/

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

After a first brief check on my XA2 Plus with 3.0.3 it seems to work fine. Autostart works again, Maps, Searches and Routing do work. I Installed both the osmscout-server and mapbox-qml. If I find any problems after some more tests I'll report back.

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

Testing on Jolla C 3.0.3.9. No problem discovered.
Thanks.

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

Thanks for testing! I'll wait till tomorrow evening (Estonian time) and then release the updated versions at OpenRepos.

For 3.0.2.x users, early warning - DON'T UPDATE, you are going to get separate repository at OBS

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

Reporting the same.
Installed osmscout-server and mapbox.

Had some hiccups when installing puremaps but got it working after removing and re-installing via storeman.

Could not install mimic (missing icu52 dep).
Have picotts but did not go out so no testing of speech... (okay, push button in preferences works)

@rinigus
what to check about mapbox? I can see the maps...

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

SfOS_v.3.0.3.9. JC, XC. No problem.

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

@peterleinchen: thanks for heads up regarding mimic. Will have to update that as well.

Re Mapbox GL testing: nothing special, I think. Just using it - its all I can propose.

Re: [Announce] Native offline maps: OSM Scout Server
 

This means "for users of SFOS ≤ 3.0.2.x", right?
