Is there any way to enable debugging of Maemo Mapper?

I tried to use it this weekend with a Bluetooth GPS for trip from Rugby to York (both in the UK) and it crashed so frequently on my N800 to be useless.

Having seen the same sort of thing when run from the command line (difficult to do at <cough> mph on the motorway) it seems to be a combination of seg faults and random quits.

I've not yet plowed through the source (mmm, one big shiny file) but anyone (gnuite <hint> ;-)) know how good it is with buffer overflows etc.? e.g. if it gets dodgy data from the GPS?

If I had a debug log, I'd raise a bug and try and fix it, but there seems to be no rhyme or reason to the crashes, except they seem to occur when I've got the GPS enabled (and "Show info" on).

Thanks in advance,

Andrew
