this is what I get instead of google map.

Version:           1.2.0 (using KDE 4.4.5) 
OS:                Linux

I'm unable to get GPS coordinates from google map because I can't see the map; instead of it I receive the following warning message:
We are sorry, but we don't have imagery at this zoom leve for this region even I try to zooming out as suggested.
Please note that if I try the same operations on my 32 bits laptop, running the same software levels all work fine; I'm able to see the google map and, obviously, to get the coordinate from it.
So, I'm imaging a problem related to a 64 bits environment.
Thanks you for the help.

 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Select an image then click Geolocation from the Image menu them select 'edit coordinate; 

Actual Results:  
I see on the left the fields for coordinates and on the right a windows containing a warning messages.See the attached GeolocationError.jpeg file.  

Expected Results:  
I'm expecting a google map instead of warning messages.

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.32-27-generic
UBUNTU 10.04 (lucid)
GNOME 2.30.2
KDE 4.4.5

Thanks Gilles; Since the requested update it's not a simple update but the new package must be compiled I'm not confident to be able to do this task, btw I'll try it and I'll update asap.

Maybe the problem is not in gpssync, but in KHTML? The HTML we show in gpssync can be seen at this URL:

http://digikam3rdparty.free.fr/gpslocator/getlonlatalt.php?gmapsversion=3

Please try opening this URL in konqueror on the two systems that you used earlier, and see whether the problem persists. If it does, it's a KHTML issue, not a gpssync issue.

Thank You Michael! You are right! Trying to open the suggested url with konqueror I got the same problem. 
Konqueror isn't my preferrend borwser, I never used it but; looking to konqueror configuration I found that the browser don't send it's identification. 
I selected 'Send identification' and 'Add operating system name' on 'Browser identification' in configuration windows and now gpssync works fine!
Many thanks again for your help!
Best regards
