[ gpsdrive ] Upgrading gpsdrive - Questions about psql vs mysql

[Cord Beermann]

Hello,

I'm tried to move my old (2.9?) mysql-Database with > 100000 Waypoints
into the new database-schema of GPSdrive 2.10pre4 from Debian.

There is a Script which dumps the content of the old database into a
gpx-file and a perl-script called poi-manager for importing it.
Running the latter leads to a 'Segementation Fault' of perl, and no
Waypoint is inserted into the Database.

Running GPSdrive 2.10pre4 doesn't show anything about the data in the
MySQL-Database, or an indication that it tries to use the database.

So, i started to look around and found that you are now on 2.10pre7
and installed the debian-package (2.10svn2448). 

(btw: your versioned dependencies are broken:
gpsdrive: gpsdrive-utils (> 2299) but 2.10svn2448 is to be installed
same applies for openstreetmap-utils)

I also want to use OSM, and in the old Debian-Package was a script
which downloaded and inserted OSM-data in the MySQL-Database.

While wading through the documentation i wondered if gpsdrive really
needs a MySQL-Database for POIs and a Postgres for OSM.

I don't want to run two databases, is it possible to have only one
database for POIs AND OSM-data to use by gpsdrive? 

Which one is that and how do i have to set it up so gpsdrive
recognizes it?

Thanks,
	Cord
