Right now, libdivecomputer only supports parsing the temperature values 
in the samples (e.g. a full temperature profile), and not the single 
value stored in the dive header. Unfortunately the Uwatec Aladin doesn't 
have a temperature profile, so you get no temperature at all.

Adding support for temperature stored in the header (through the 
dc_parser_get_field function) is already on my todo list. It's one of 
the most often requested features...

Argh. It looks like I forgot about the libdivecomputer event data. 
Without this extra metadata in the log, I can't correctly parse all the 
data.

Do you mind downloading the universal test app (pick the platform of 
your choice):

http://www.libdivecomputer.org/builds/

and run it with these options:

./universal -v -l aladin.log -m aladin.bin -n "Uwatec Aladin Pro" 
<serialport>


@Dirk: This is something I'll have to address with a new patch.
