I was generating a map of Potsdam with mkgmap from an .osm file which I had produced by making multiple API requests in JOSM as no extract was available (and XAPI is down). This resulted in a JOSM .osm file with multiple bounds elements. mkgmap couldn't handle this and clipped the map to one of them (presumably the first one) so my generated map showed only a part of the area I had data for. Maybe multiple <bounds> elements are invalid, or maybe mkgmap should handle them. I can't find it on the wiki so you guys figure it out:) For reference I'm attaching the changes I made to my .osm file to make it work, which consisted of removing all the <bounds> elements.
