Online Package Manager

edit: sorry, getmem, I am using fpc3.0.4

OK, I have blown away my existing install of Lazarus and pulled down a fresh copy (because I find svn sometimes surprises me wrt overwriting my own hacks).  So, complete clean install. I try to install the map viewer before my usual favourites.

Same error.

@wp, yep, just installing the map viewer, it all goes sweetly.  No erros and the icons have appeared on my toolbar.  Be interesting to see if my downloads work.  I have found, in the past that not all sites require that (getmem's openssl) mod.

Would it make sense to split the package into two packages ??  The core package and, secondly, the collection of options  ?   Or just have the options unticked by default. I certainly thought I needed the full set, wp indicates thats not the case.

@wp, @davo

OK. I updated OPM, by default only lazmapviewerpgk.lpk is visible. The info about the other packages is visible in the preview screen or community description. Please see attached images. wp if you wish to change the text, please let me know.

Ps: Fixed typo mannually.

Perfect. Do I have to update the update.json file?

@getmem, good move !   Again, thanks for a really great tool.

@wp, yes, some download isses, I'll open a thread in "Packages and Libraries" rather than clog up getmem's thread.

Sorry, I don't have any idea about licenses. On the other hand, Maciej Kaczkowski, the author of the very first version, writes in the file header of the main viewer unit (and this is retained in LazMapViewer): "This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it  under the terms of the GNU Library General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version." - Is this LGPL 3.0? I understood it as GPL 2.

If we search for "GNU Library General Public License" one of the first links will be this one: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/lgpl-2.0.html. It can be seen there that mentioned library is LGPL and not pure GPL. As for the version - yes, code headers state LGPL 2 or any later version, while his original site that is still live says library is LGPL 3.0. Therefore, probably most correct would be to say that library is LGPL 2.0 or any later version.

OK, I'll change it after I received feedback from jc99, the author of the package with the BGRABitmap drawing engine.

As discussed in the other thread (https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,49075.0.html) and agreed by all authors, I now changed the license of the LazMapviewer component to modified LGPL (like RTL, FCL, LCL). GetMem, could you please add the new version to OPM? https://sourceforge.net/projects/lazarus-ccr/files/LazMapViewer/lazmapviewer-v0.2.2.zip/download
