if you can, please try the debian build rules from DebianGIS git, and the
g.extension from devbr6, I just sync'd that to the latest behaviour of the
g.extension script yesterday. I would not be surprised if earlier versions
and combinations fail.

afair the "the Variable LOCATION_NAME not set" message does no harm and
can be ignored. can you attach the full output?

how are you building? manually or in a .deb package?
where are you running it from? directly from the build dir or after 'make
install', or from the .deb?

I tested 6.4.2rc2 on ubuntu 11.10 yesterday (debian sid too) while helping
Helmut, g.extension worked for me from the .deb, and from the build dir
for 6.5svn, but I will have another try in case I missed something.

thanks,
Hamish

Comment(by manu):

I'm on Ubuntu 11.10.

I tried to compile 6.4.2 (release_20111115_grass_6_4_2RC2) with the build
rules from DebianGIS http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-
grass/grass.git;a=blob_plain;f=debian/rules;hb=HEAD but as with the
package Makefile, compilation yielded some errors although final error
message was "No errors detected." .

Grass startup then crashes as discribed on other plateform
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=694956, see below.

Any hints?

Cheers

I run ./configure with the -with-tcltk-includes=/usr/include/tcl8.4
option.

I just solved this problem by starting grass straight into a location and
then starting the wxpython gui manually.

Regarding the g.extension problem, still some errors when compiling
modules such as r.out.gmt2 but installation succeeds despite these, after
a make MODULE_TOPDIR=/usr/local/grass-6.4.2RC2/ within the module
directory

`ERROR: G_getenv(): Variable LOCATION_NAME not set` now fixed in devbr6
and 6.4svn with r49341,2. It was harmless except that the --html-
description usage part was not being added to the help pages because the
dummy location was missing.

Comment:

I believe this has been fixed by a combination of recent changes to the
grass build/install scripts and the debian packaging rules script.
