3==Prerequisites==Requires:* GeocodeGlib be installed. Linking existing places with geolocations{{** [https://github.com/GNOME/geocode-glib GeocodeGlib/geocode-glib] is a convenience library for the geocoding (finding longitude, and latitude from an address) and reverse geocoding (finding an address from coordinates). It uses [https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nominatim Nominatim] service (from openstreetmap.org ) to achieve that. It also caches (reverse-}})geocoding requests for faster results and to avoid unnecessary server load.* Internet Access required
=Prerequisites=Issues==* On linux an older version of libgeocode-glib0 (3.18.2) causes segmentation faults when pressing the search button.** Please update to a newer version of that library. For example:Requires GeocodeGlib be installed wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/geocode-glib/libgeocode-glib0_3.25.4.1-4ubuntu0.18.04.1_amd64.deb apt-get install ./libgeocode-glib0_3.25.4.1-4ubuntu0.18.04.1_amd64.deb* Help button goes to https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Gramplets#Place_Coordinates instead of this page
