[GRASS-dev] g.extension global name error

GRASS GRASS developer

Greetings,

I just checkout and compiled g.extension for RC5 here on Mac OS X.

If I just enter g.extension at the prompt, the GUI comes up. If I run it from the GUI or the command line I get this error:

(Tue Sep 1 19:11:25 2009)
g.extension -l svnurl=https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass-addons/grass7 prefix=$(HOME)/.grass6/addons

I am pretty much a python noob, so not sure where to start looking.

Any ideas?

Python script from trunk is suitable for GRASS 7. For GRASS 6 use
shell script from GRASS Add-ons [1].

Fixed in r38942, anyway it's not guaranteed that python script from
GRASS 7 will work in GRASS 6.

Maybe more precisely:
- use the GRASS Add-ons [1] script for GRASS 6.4
- in GRASS 6.5.svn g.extension is included
