[mkgmap-dev] BuildDEMFile problem

Thu Nov 23 16:04:51 GMT 2017

Hi Frank

Thanks for looking into that.

  Just discovered what foxed me:

Unusually ,there was /no error message/ telling me that neither the .hgt 
nor .zip file were found .

Perhaps, the error message does not occur because I'm using usedummydata?

In which case, it would still be very useful to know if it can't find 
.hgt or .zip

This is what I get when I parse the large pbf
