My RPi2 was once working on OCPN ver 4.0 although without OpenGL.

As I have no raspberry PI2 (maybe it can be emulated but my internet is too slow to download what's needed) I can only suggest using git-bisect and determine the offending commit.

Sean..
Many thanks for the reply but I don't "blame" OCPN since 4.0 is no longer working either. It's my own fault not having track on my system changes. And I haven't learned Linux enough to understand what's missing or erroneously installed.
My reports could as well be a humble call for education?

More RPi2....
For info:
Now I've reinstalled my system, Debian/Raspbian, and built OCPN on that;
Today's Git fetch is working great! I have run it with and without OpenGL. Without is of course a bit faster but both are working, so far I've only tried vector charts. OpenGL with texture compression and fps=0. (Not sure about the consequences for fps=0)
My only system changes are:

In /boot/config.txt
framebuffer_depth=32
framebuffer_ignore_alpha=1

OCPN didn't start without these changes to config.txt

Next step is to find out what caused my earlier start up crashes.

Sorry for my possible worries about OCPN failures before, It's of course all my fault.

Another alpha issue.
The "Measure" pencil does not appear when activated. Instead it does appear
when clicking to start measuring. Clicking "Measure off" does not get rid of the pencil, but no measuring is possible. Double clicking to do an object query, does get rid of the pencil on the screen.

Reason is the wonderful world of Sean's optimizations. I don't understand why this always find its way into the code after all the trouble seen with its opengl optimizations last year.

When something works good, why keep it so|

Whinging does not help alpha testing one iota.........
A factual attitude does help.

Auto sort in the AIS target list used to be persistent, even between sessions.
Now its not even persistent within a session.

What was change?

Pencil cursor now fixed in github.

Contrary to assertions, this had nothing to do with either OpenGL, or Sean.

I will take a look at the AIS sorting. I have poor internet, and not too many AIS equipped boats nearby, so I can't get a large list.

Recall that autosort is disabled if there are more than 1000 targets.

You’re right. It behaves exactly as described in the wiki .

installed fedora 22 alpha on a new system recently and am trying to compile
OpenCPN from git

from the online instructions for linux
git clone git://github.com/OpenCPN/OpenCPN.git

cmake ran okay but make failed at the link step

which is weird since I compiled it on fc22 a week or so ago on another system
just posting the last few lines as I assume I am doing something wrong and
will be trying again.

I get a crash with the latest alpha code when clicking an network connection in Options -> Connections.

Comment out these lines in options.cpp:

void options::ShowNMEABT(bool visible)
{
    if ( visible )
    {
        m_buttonScanBT->Show();
        m_stBTPairs->Show();
        m_choiceBTDataSources->Show();

    }
    else
    {
//        m_buttonScanBT->Hide();  // Crash mit Window Hide
//        m_stBTPairs->Hide();
//        m_choiceBTDataSources->Hide();
    }
}

Gerhard...

Thanks for the pointer.

Fixed in github now.

I just updated from git and find a problem with target queries.
For example an AIS target. Double clicking moves the target and the "Target Query Dialog" does not come up. To bring up the dialog through double clicking a target needs to be centered, so, first a single click followed by a double click works.
