[mkgmap-dev] Problem with splitter: Failed to find a correct split

From Patrik Brunner patrik.brunner at gmx.net on Fri Mar 25 12:32:24 GMT 2016

Good news, Gerd.
.. as long as it's not too much thoughts... ;-)

Just to give you a heads up regarding the 'source' of the problem:
according to GeoFabrik the wrong bounds tag seems to be caused by 
osmium-history-splitter used to split the world file.

Cheers
Patrik
