(I've been away from gpsd for a long time.)
I'm updating pkgsrc from 2.96 (!) to 3.18. This is mostly
straightforward, but I have one significant question.
Compared to the set of files installed before, I see that the following
are not installed:
include/gpsd.h
lib/libgpsd.la
lib/pkgconfig/libgpsd.pc
man/man3/libgpsd.3
I looked at NEWS, and I don't see any mention of the withdrawal; perhaps
they were always an implementation detail and specified as not usable.
I don't need an explanation and don't mean to nitpick about NEWS -- I
just want to make sure that this is an intended change and not a
packaging bug to fix.
(And, gpsd 3.18 runs on NetBSD/8 amd64 with one of these:
umodem0: u-blox AG - www.u-blox.com (0x1546) u-blox GNSS receiver (0x1a8),
rev 1.10/3.01, addr 7, iclass 2/2
using xgps, but the NTP shm mechanism isn't working. I'll ask again if
I can't debug it.)
