Hi,

I'd like to followup on this to see OpenCPN packaged in Fedora.
If possible, I'd like to co-maintain this package. I'm part of the upstream
team and already providing Fedora rpm there.

Here's updated spec & srpm for latest 2.5.0
http://je.onfray.fr/dl/opencpn.spec
http://je.onfray.fr/dl/opencpn-2.5.0-1.fc16.src.rpm

As you'll see, I added a rule to remove embedded bzip2 & zlib to ensure they
are not used. I wanted to do the same for tinyxml but they're including
tinystr.h that's not provided in Fedora (unnecessary include: it's only
required if tinyxml is built without stl) This would require a patch to
include/gpxdocument.h
Please tell me if I should do it. I'll open a bug upstream to have it removed
from future release.

gdal library has lots of changes from upstream. Changes heavily related to
internal use. Would probably not fit to upstream for inclusion.

nmea0183 does not exist as a lib. There are two different versions: one for
core OpenCPN, one for the dashboard plugin. Both are different. It's required
by lead OpenCPN dev to ensure plugins doesn't rely on any special version from
core.

Please comment.

Regards,
Jean-Eudes
