[GRASS-dev] GRASS GIS 6.4.3RC2 released

Helena and others,

I posted my proposed fix for volume display on the Mac (both isosurfaces and slices) to the trak report.

Unfortunately, Markus Metz’s fix this morning did not work. So it is still getting rid of gvl_data_align that works so far.

A second release candidate of GRASS GIS 6.4.3 is now available.

since it’s more than a month ago now, what about another another RC or
release?

maybe anything for the community sprint next week?

Excellent suggestion. There is a number of unresolved issues, but hopefully not too difficult to fix:

  • r3.in.ascii broken handling of input parameters (it runs only with defaults, if you need to change something,
    e.g. specify * for nulls it gives error - more details here
    http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/1801

  • the isosurfaces now work on macosx10.8 with changes made by Michael - this needs to be further tested and
    done for GRASS6.4.3 as well - Michael, can you put your solution into bug report #1736 and then
    if it works perhaps this can be closed (btw I found #803 with isosurfaces crashing on linux with segfault -
    I am wondering whether this was related).
