#libshumate — Public Fediverse posts

Rolled the releases for GNOME 50 today (a bit early, but I'll be busy all day tomorrow):

Maps 50.0
libshumate 1.6.0

and also a (small) bugfix 49.5 on the (old) stable branch.

Didn't yet do a write-up about the new stuff, guess that'll have to be done sometime soonish, too… 😎

Just rolled beta releases of Maps and libshumate (50.beta and 1.6.beta) for the upcoming GNOME 50 release, and also stable releases (49.4, 48.9, and 1.5.3, 1.4.1 respectively) before traveling to Brussels for FOSDEM tommorow evening.

One improvement in 50.beta consists of showing more text from the article extract from Wikipedia in “desktop mode” when there is more space.

Just tagged Maps 50.alpha and libshumate 1.6.alpha for GNOME 50:

Containing, among others, the new sidebar redesign, public transit journey redesign, using Transitous for all public transit routingm, and porting of UI templates to Blueprint for Maps.

And for libshumate the option to compile without the vector renderer has been removed, the vector renderer has gained support for "global-state" expressions.

Tarballs are now out for GNOME 49 beta release for Maps and libshumate.

Among the new stuff for Maps:
It now shows the localized highways shields (when definitions are available) in the place details for road labels

The POI search interface has an option for searching for vegan/vegetarian restaurants (this was an old proposal I got IRL at GUADEC 2023, but kinda forgot).

And in libshumate it is now possible to (non-center) align map markers.
