I tried that, but it didn't work. My determination at the time (Sept 24)
was that GDA2 would not work without rewriting the C code due to API
changes, etc.

I have compiled GpsDrive & created a .deb for Etch without Mapnik support.

The package there is SVN from ~1 month ago (pre-libgps?), I have made a
new SVN .deb for Etch as recently as yesterday, but not uploaded it yet.

IIRC you need newer Mapnik/OSM packages than are available for Etch, so
would need to backport those as well to get GpsDrive+Mapnik on Etch. OSM
is poorly covered where I live, so I haven't bothered with that.
