Maybe get back to this again someday. * * Update: January 2016. * * I'm told that the shared memory interface might work in Raspian, Jessie version. * Haven't tried it yet. * * June 2020: This is how to build the most recent. * * Based on https://www.satsignal.eu/raspberry-pi/UpdatingGPSD.html * * git clone https://gitlab.com/gpsd/gpsd.git gpsd-gitlab * cd gpsd-gitlab * scons --config=force * scons * sudo scons install * * The problem we have here is that the library is put in /usr/local/lib and direwolf * can't find it there. Solution is to define environment variable: * * export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/use/local/lib * * January 2023: Now using 64 bit Raspberry Pi OS, bullseye. * See https://gitlab.com/gpsd/gpsd/-/blob/master/build.adoc * Try to install in proper library place so we don't have to mess with LD_LIBRARY_PATH. * * (Remove any existing gpsd first so we are not mixing mismatched pieces.) * * sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev * sudo apt-get install gtk+-3.0 * * git clone https://gitlab.com/gpsd/gpsd.git gpsd-gitlab * cd gpsd-gitlab * scons prefix=/usr libdir=lib/aarch64-linux-gnu * [ scons check ] * sudo scons udev-install * */ int dwgpsd_init (struct misc_config_s *pconfig, int debug) { #if ENABLE_GPSD pthread_t read_gps_tid; int e; int err; int arg = 0; char sport[12]; s_debug = debug; if (s_debug >= 2) { text_color_set(DW_COLOR_DEBUG); dw_printf ("dwgpsd_init()\n"); } /* * Socket interface to gpsd. */ if (strlen(pconfig->gpsd_host) == 0) { /* Nothing to do.
