Linux-2.6.35.14-106.fc14.x86_64-x86_64-with-fedora-14running g.extension (from gui or from command line) gives:

ERROR: Compilation failed, sorry. Please check above error messages.
--snip--where g.extension appears to be wanting to write temporary files while
compiling (and installing?) to a directory with root privileges, instead
of at $HOME/.grass7/addons which based on manual pages should be the
default local directory if "s" flag is not set.I too encountered this today. I just changed the permissions of my grass 7
install tree in usr/lib/grass70, and it worked fine. I, too, didn't have
any issue in grass6.4. However, I am having a different issue with
g.extension, but only for addons I've written myself (and I made another
e-mail thread about that).
Please, write that directly to the ticket on Trac:
http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/2598
Put there also how did you change the permissions. g.extension should
install by default to .grass7 in your how directory (or equivalent) or if
executed with sudo (or equivalent), it will put data into system directory
(neither option should require change of permissions).
