Major Fix for Airport Configuration Files Implemented

Hi All!,


Sometimes major fixes may come from the most unexpected sources.

Intriguingly, Waldo (Wkitty42) had actually find a major bug in terrasync/terraGIT in the way Airport configuration files are located.
Furthermore, not only he finds the bug, but he finds the correct solution

https://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic. ... 30#p294869
the following command seems to move the misplaced ones up one directory where they should reside...

Code: Select all

    cd /your/terrasync/Airports
    find . -type f -wholename './?/?/?/???.*' -execdir mv {} .. \;

AFAICT, they still work properly but i've only tested with a few...
BDF - Bradfield field, 38nm west of Brisbane, QLD, Australia
BD7 - Muddy Lake Field, 71nm east of Juneau, Alaska, USA
YB1 - Bush Strip, 38nm west of Brisbane, QLD, Australia
Y50 - Wautoma Muni
WBB - Stebbins, 45nm south west of PAUN (Unalakleet)
and some others randomly chosen...


After I verify this, within terraGIT, I proceeded as opportune, and implemented the fix

Now, in terraGIT 8500+ configuration files are now located as expected, and work properly

To obtain this fix

Simply update terraGIT

Code: Select all

git pull


Have fun everyone,
(and safe landings)

If we gave everybody in the World free software today, but we failed to teach them about the four freedoms, five years from now, would they still have it?
