darktable does not show map

Processing

Hello
I did some pictures in my holidays, unfortunately I forgot to geotrack them in the camera. Now I wanted to do this on the computer, which I did before on occasions. However, for some reason in the module map, no mo map is shown, even though looking through older developments the pictures are shown, however on a white board.

Hello Peter.

  1. Does the map view show in the dropdown of other modules at top right, as shown below?

If not, you may have a flatpak or other format that has not had this compiled in.

  1. If the map view IS present, does selecting it bring up the map view?

  2. If the map view comes up, what map source(s) are you trying?

You can potentially run -d all when you start darktable to see if an error message is written to the console.

Also, please state exact version number.

As I recall, in a previous version (it may have been 4.6) there was a change that broke some aspects of map mode.

Thank you, Martin
This afternoon, I tried t again, this time with Google Maps instead of Open street Maps, which I used before - and with Google Maps it works: By the way I do have an appimage installation

This should work in flatpak

No offence intended, Mica …

None taken!

Are we aware of packages being built without the map function?

Aware of in official releases in 2024, no.
Aware that certain libraries need to be available for non-official builds to include map view, yes.
