mavproxy 1.8.74-1

Package Information

DescriptionMAVLink command-line proxy and ground control station

MAVProxy is a command-line ground control station for vehicles using the MAVLink protocol. It can route telemetry between several serial, network and log-file endpoints, and provides an interactive console for monitoring and controlling a vehicle.

Its functionality can be extended at run time with modules. Optional modules provide graphical maps and consoles, log analysis, camera support and other vehicle-control tools.

The optional Cesium visualization module (mavproxy_cesium) is not included in this package. Other map modules remain available.

This package provides the executables.

Changelog
mavproxy (1.8.74-1) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Initial release (Closes: #1144889).
   * Use Python 3's built-in input instead of importing python-future.
   * Require matching versions of the executable and Python library packages.
   * Test core command-line startup separately from graphical tool startup.
   * Use a raw string for the graph module regex to avoid invalid-escape
     SyntaxWarnings with newer Python versions.
   * Supply the missing GPL-3.0 license paragraph and use consistent
     GPL-3.0+ references in debian/copyright.
   * Skip the absent Cesium submodule when building the release archive.
     Document the omission in the package description and README.Debian.
   * Install the ublox module and picture-viewer helpers with working imports.
   * Declare the pkg_resources runtime dependency and recommend piexif for
     the picture viewer; include its help command in the autopkgtest and
     explicitly install the optional dependencies used by the smoke tests.
