I've received the Rico's bug report, but had no time to acknowledge it yet.

But I don't think navit should ship with gypsy support while gypsy isn't
properly packaged in Debian. I'll have a look at the package on
bierrommel.de by the next week. And I'm ok to sponsor it in case it's in
good shape.

Once gypsy is in Debian I'll add support for it to the navit package.

Thanks,
