[GRASS-dev] could r.cost nearest option be backported to G6?

Hi,

A group of colleagues need to use for several runs r.cost with the really useful option “nearest” (Name for output raster map with nearest start point) which is present in GRASS7. The problem is that for some reasons they can’t install G7 but have to keep working for the moment on G6. Would it be too bloody to backport in G6 this nice option?

Thank you in advance,
madi

r.cost has changed quite a bit in G7, it would be difficult to
backport only one of the various changes. What are their problems with
installing G7?
