           Summary: monav gui client gives correct driving instruction,
                    marble/monav does not
           Product: marble
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Maemo 5
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: marble-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: henryokeeffe2010 at yahoo.ie


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 1.2) 
OS:                Linux

the 'offical' monav gui client on nokia n900 gives correct turn by turn driving
instructions, whereas marble using monav doesn't. marble/monav seems to
ignore/miss many if not most 'turn left/right' directions instead , saying e.g.
'follow the road for x kilometers'.

an example is (using the map of Ireland)

from
8° 29' 46.7"W,  51° 51' 49.6"N

to
8° 29' 39.8"W,  51° 51' 48.6"N

this is a 'fork' in the road, i.e. where 3 roads meet in a 'Y' shape. the
journey is from the top left of the 'Y' down to the intersection and back up to
the top right of the 'Y'.

marble/monav  says 'go straight ahead, follow the road for 300m'

the native monav gui client says 'continue for 190m, turn left, continue for
120m'



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
download native monav n900 gui
download native monav map of ireland .zip file into seperate directory to where
marble maps are stored from same webpage
compare routes using both clients

Actual Results:  
monav native gui doesn't miss out turning instructions, marble/monav misses out
quite a lot of turning instructions

Expected Results:  
marble/monav should give correct turn by turn driving instructions like native
monav gui client.
