Name : gpsd Product : Fedora 18 Version : 3.9 Release : 1.fc18 URL : http://catb.org/gpsd/ Summary : Service daemon for mediating access to a GPS Description : gpsd is a service daemon that mediates access to a GPS sensor connected to the host computer by serial or USB interface, making its data on the location/course/velocity of the sensor available to be queried on TCP port 2947 of the host computer. With gpsd, multiple GPS client applications (such as navigational and wardriving software) can share access to a GPS without contention or loss of data. Also, gpsd responds to queries with a format that is substantially easier to parse than NMEA 0183. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This is an update to the latest upstream release, which fixes a denial of service flaw found in the way AIS driver packet parser processed certain malformed packets. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Thu May 2 2013 Miroslav Lichvar |
