[GRASS-dev] Fedora 16 6.4 release branch 49406 and RC2 failure

Hi,

I first tried 6.4.2 RC2, now also checked out SVN 49406, with the same result. With fresh Fedora 16, building from source (with 6.4.1 the proj arguments were never needed), there is trouble loading the GUI:

$ ./configure --prefix=/home/rsb/topics/GRASS/G642RC2 --with-wxwidgets
--with-proj-libs=/usr/local/lib --with-proj-include=/usr/local/include
--with-proj-share=/usr/local/share/proj

$ /home/rsb/topics/GRASS/G642RC2/bin/grass64 -wx

Any ideas? Worth filing a bug? Is this wx, nviz, ctypes, none of them?

but at least grass starts with gui, although without wxnviz.

Martin wrote on Friday that he had disabled wxNviz in relbr64 at r49360, so I assumed that by checking out r49406, I would avoid the problem I had seen in the RC2 tarball. Am I missing a dependency that is not being trapped by configure? Why does a post-r49360 checkout from:

svn checkout https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass/branches/releasebranch_6_4 grass64_release

still try to build wxnviz? Where should I look to see which files were changed by r49360 on the server, so that I can compare with the ones I checked out?

The file on my checkout and currently shown from:

http://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass/branches/releasebranch_6_4/gui/wxpython/gui_modules/nviz.py

has lines 31-33:

     import wxnviz
     # disable wxNviz for 6.4.2
     # TODO: backport wxNviz from devbr6 *after* releasing 6.4.2
     haveNviz = False

but this doesn't seem OK for my context. The problem is the failure at:

   errtype = CFUNCTYPE(UNCHECKED(c_int), String, c_int)
NameError: name 'UNCHECKED' is not defined

so the import wxnwiz fails, doesn't it? Is just setting haveNviz = False enough?

Hi,

2011/11/28 Roger Bivand <Roger.Bivand@nhh.no>:

import wxnviz
# disable wxNviz for 6.4.2
# TODO: backport wxNviz from devbr6 *after* releasing 6.4.2
haveNviz = False

hopefully fixed in r49409. Martin

the long way:
-------------

go to https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/
or https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ and click on the
"browse source" button on the top button bar.

follow on to grass/branches/releasebranch_6_4/

scroll down to the "> gui" row

(at this point I see Martin has checked in a fix for you one hour ago)

click on the "Rev" number for that row to get to comparative
diffs.

find the appropriate row for the change, click on the [Chgset]
number for it.

that shows you changes for that revision but only within
the gui/ dir:

https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/changeset/49409/grass/branches/releasebranch_6_4/gui

cut away the right end of the URL to see all changes of that revision.

https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/changeset/49409/

the short way:
--------------

https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/changeset/&lt;revision number>

the "Location:" line at the top shows that all changes are in fact
contained within the gui/wxpython/gui_modules/ dir in this case.

see also:
---------

in a dir: svn log --limit 10
to a file: svn blame main.c

Confirmed, thanks! Roger

PS. I also needed NumPy installed to avoid a warning, not caught by configure I think.
