Package cannot be built

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Perhaps try the new version. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/osm-gps-map/1.0.2-1

In my case it didn't fail with the same error message, but I've fixed it so that it compiles correctly in my PPA for saucy and trusty (at least). The fix can be found here: lp:~saltmakrell/launchpad/fixtiles-osm-gps-map
(it also contains the fix for #1320359).

Is there anyone here who would like to be my sponsor? I've not been through the process before, but I'm willing to learn.

Hi Ruben,
When you think the package update is ready for sponsorship, you just subscribe the ubuntu-sponsors team to the bug as described here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SponsorshipProcess
Someone will eventually review it, and get back to you with any comments.

Hi Ross,
I was actually not subscribed to this bug so I haven't seen this comment from you before now. I will make an
attempt again today. Thanks for helping out.
Ruben

Latest utopic version (imported from Debian) built fine: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/osm-gps-map/1.0.2-1

Aso, there's no patch to sponsor here, and the associated merge proposal was merged. Closing. Thanks!

That's a different package, and 0.7.3 still cannot be built. Bug needs to be reopened and the problem actually fixed.

Hi Gordon,

Thanks for keeping an eye on this, but there is no need to reopen the bug.

I believe that Ruben has fixed the Fail to Build problem for 0.7.3, which was necessary to fix the Missing Tiles problem:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/osm-gps-map/+bug/1320359
The fix has been sponsored and uploaded, and is waiting for the Stable Release Update team to review it. If approved, it will move to trust-proposed, and if tested okay - will be released.

Perhaps you should subscribe yourself to that bug, so you can keep an eye on the problem there. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Ross
