            Bug ID: 303070
          Severity: major
           Version: unspecified
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: marble-bugs at kde.org
           Summary: timestamped track files are not recognized by Google
                    Earth (gx:MultiTrack missing)
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: bbeschow at cs.tu-berlin.de
          Hardware: Other
            Status: NEW
         Component: general
           Product: marble

When opening a timestamped .kml file generated by latest Marble (master), GE
doesn't show the track. However, GE will recognize the .kml file if the
MultiGeometry tag (around the gx:tracks) is replaced by gx:MultiTrack.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Save a track to a .kml file
1.a. Create a route
1.b At "Current Location" -> "Position Tracking" pick "Current Route"
1.c Wait a bit for tracking to generate some track points
1.d Save the current track
2. Open the .kml file in Google Earth
Actual Results:  
Google Earth doesn't show the track

Expected Results:  
The track should be visible in Google Earth

Steps to make the track visible in Google Earth:
1. Replace MultiGeometry by gx:MultiTrack in the .kml file.
2. Reload in Google Earth
3. The track becomes visible
