[GRASS-dev] GRASS 7.8.1 ?

hi,

as winGRASS is on the way to come back, see [1]. locally here is already
winGRASS 7.8.0 running for testing.

there are already a few reported issues for python3 and git related to
winGRASS etc, e.g.

https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/3882
https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/3871
https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/3880
https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/3873

more will come with more testing

there have been some python 3 fixes in the last time, e.g.

[GRASS-git] [OSGeo/grass] b5b00f: wxGUI: fix deprecated wx.NewId
[GRASS-git] [OSGeo/grass] 623258: wxGUI/animation: fix deprecation warnings
(https:/…

cause of ticket/3882 winGRASS 7.8 isn't really usable for vector editing
cause of ticket/3880 winGRASS 7.8 won't be working with precombiled binary
addons

* is there any plan for a GRASS 7.8.1 ?
* what is the backport status from master to releasebranch_7_8

That’s good news! Thank you. I would like to have some time to fix at least some of the windows issues that popped up with Python3, I need to review what needs to be done, I lost track of it. But I agree we should release fairly soon.

And what's the status of addons for Windows. I have a lot of colleagues suffering from their apparent absence.

Would it make sense to wait if we can get the standalone wingrass and addons (Martin?), I am not sure where it is at, or how much time it’s needed for this. If that might take awhile still, then yes, we can release.

OSGeo4W-winGRASS 7.8.1 and standalone winGRASS 7.8.1 should be doable.

regarding addons, daily builds depends on Martin's server able to build and
compile.

tested OSGeo4W-winGRASS 7.8.dev a little bit in the last days, some python3
(?) issues are there, e.g.

Yes, GRASS will then work with GDAL 3 + PROJ 6 (just finished some local tests, looks all fine).

So it is close. But we still need to coordinate when to update GDAL & PROJ in
OSGeo4W so it's available for a new GRASS build and also that the other reverse
dependencies (ie. QGIS) are rebuilt with it - and then re-issue a new
standalone after that.

So it is close.

Markus Metz has merged the PR this morning:

* master: https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/commit/b32d8be38d123eba6bcc2c33f8b13e40a836a79a
* releasebranch_7_8:
https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/commit/66b4ea2c0e6c4962b8abb2f1fa7b4551dfbe9d7f

I am now preparing GRASS 7.8.1RC1.

Excellent, thanks for the hard work!

Since the QGIS project is eagerly waiting for the release [1], I would
like to prepare RC1 today unless there is a showstopper.

GDAL 3 is not in Ubuntu 19.10 because it's not in Debian unstable yet, and Ubuntu syncs its packages from Debian unstable by default.

There is also no one actively maintaining the geospatial packages in Ubuntu, and hence no one to do work that diverges from Debian.

The transition to GDAL 3 in Debian unstable is blocked by the removal of python-gdal as discussed in the transition bugreport:

  https://bugs.debian.org/939989

python-gdal will also be dropped from the upcoming upload of gdal (2.4.3+dfsg-1) once the final release is published.

Once gdal without python-gdal has migrated to testing the transition should no longer be blocked by the python-gdal removal.

Unblocking the testing migration may involve getting the remaining reverse dependencies of python-gdal removed from testing as well.

Kind Regards,

Bas
