[mkgmap-dev] No cities found

Tue Jul 21 09:37:44 BST 2015

Hi Stéphane,

I think I saw similar problems while traveling through 
Europe using a map created by 
http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl/
with Minkos "Openfietsmap Lite" style.

One reason could be that the different 
indexes are build from different sources.
The list of cities is build from POI with
        type >= 0x0100 && type <= 0x1100;
while cities in address search are retrieved from
mkgmap:city and there is no need to know 
"where" the centre of the city is.

So, you should check your style to make sure that
it uses the special "city POI types" like the default
style does.
If that doesn't help, we may add a check to report
city names occuring in addresses which do not
have a corresponding POI.
