I've been out of the loop from this package's progress so long now, but I'm extremely glad to see it has been ongoing. I need to someday catch up on the whole thread, for now I'll say I'm glad, very, that Marble keeps getting updates and uploads here for Maemo. Ever since last summer I've not been a position to be donating, but when I next will be, people responsible will be getting money thrown at them.

I'm a bit saddened that it seems earthwings had to step back from maintaining this, but I understand life happens, and am thankful shentey has come to take over, or whatever exactly has happened (Like I said, I need to catch up on the thread. I'm around a hundred posts behind).

Actually, I have the latest Marble and MoNav Daemon from devel installed at the same time right now and they seem to work perfectly together (installed fine, detected fine, downloaded a map of Florida through the config menu for it fine, routing seems to be working beautifully). Maybe since this was true changes in Marble upstream made it compatible with the newer MoNav as well? I can test more if people tell me what usecases to test.

As an aside, I would really love it if there was a way to select all (or to make the feature more useful for regular users, more generally allow multi-selection at each level of map categorization) of the MoNav routing maps for download at once. Then I could just select everything at once, launch the download, and go to sleep of something, have it ready in the morning, for instance. (Failing that, can someone tell me how to manually do whatever Marble/MoNav do to install the maps, so I can automate it in a shell script or something?)
