pymavlink 2.3.4 breaks APWeb

[shortstheory]

On pymavlink 2.3.4, I am unable to compile APWeb from source. I get the error message:

I have temporarily fixed my APWeb build by downgrading pymavlink to 2.2.10. Still, it's important that APWeb should be compatible with newer versions of pymavlink.

Could you check #17 fixed the problem, please?

Hi, sorry for the late reply. With this PR, I am now able to compile and run APWeb after running git submodule update --init --recursive. Thank for you for fixing this!
