g.region failed, probably because you don't have the required libraries
installed. (did you install the GDAL package(s)?)

http://grass.ibiblio.org/grass61/source/REQUIREMENTS.html

We need to catch that error better so this will send a more meaningful
error message. see:
  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gis.grass.devel/16761/focus=16850

IMO we should try and fix this for the 6.2.1 release, as it is a very
common mistake.

This is probably a symptom of GDAL not being installed properly.
