@peterleinchen - Have you checked the version which I pushed yesterday to extras-devel?

@rob_kouw - Well, depends on what "enough" is :-) I'm certainly not making a living of it, but that's okay because it is not my full time job. There are about 2 to 5 donations in the range of 0.5 to 5 Euros in the weeks after each release, and occasionally some huge amounts (like 50 Euros). And, as you may know, someone even gave his spare N900 so that I can develop for it ;-)

So - all in all, I'm quite happy with it!

Yep, just reinstalled once again. And searched for any other icon and found new icon with different (old) name. But in desktop file still the new name used. See below.
So please change either of them in next release. For now i just modified manually.
Thanks.

I recently upgraded to the N9 version and it is very nice, thanks for your continued work!

Something that seems to be missing from it however is offline maps and local caching of tiles. Are there plans to introduce these? The caching qml does seems to be very ineffective and the constant map tile loading is eating a lot of battery not to mention losing the maps when in a location with no cell signal.

Also a minor nag I have is that the currently targeted geocache marker covers quite a lot of the map. I have some high res satelite images in my tileserver but sometimes the large marker with color fill etc. tends to make it hard to see the exact spot where it is pointing (like to a corner of a building). In the N900 version all the markers disappeared when dragging the map, I guess this wasn't an intentional feature but it made it easy to "peek" behind all the markers

Which version exactly?
Extras-devel repo enabled?

Run as user (not as root)?

I could resolve it. I had to delete all folders in the .Maps folder. Now it works fine.

Hi! Today I pushed out a new version of AGTL to extras-testing and extras-devel. Please vote on this page if you find the new version to be good, we really need a new version in extras.

After upgrading to the new version (0.9.1.1) on my N900 I cannot download geocache details any more. It gives the error message "_parse_logs_json() requires exactly 2 arguments (3 given)" and bails out.

I am going to file a bug report on github also.

Still, this app is really great and I've had much fun using it. Thank you very much for it

I have to confirm that.
Going back to previous version, which was stable for me.

Error occurs also after removing .agtl/config and even whole .agtl.

Another error (a float is required) pops up when trying to download overview for visible area.

Pressing download details for all visible caches does not do anything. But taking new way of downloading into account, this is not needed anymore at all (webhamster?).?
