Hi, this is maybe similar to ticket #3693 [0].
@neteler In [0], the first example to create a Location, is performed as
root. Curious, why so? Why not as a simple user?
I just try to update my grassyan Dockerfile [0] and it fails at the
point of creating a Location, for the sake of testing. I don't know if
this is relevant with what is reported in ticket #3693:

The command '/bin/sh -c grass -text -e -c EPSG:4326 "$GRASSDB/$TEMPORARY_MAPSET" RUN grass -text "$GRASSDB/$TEMPORARY_MAPSET/PERMANENT" --exec g.region -p' returned a non-zero code: 1
Don't mind the misleading `temporary_Mapset` name, it should be
`temporary_Location` instead. Even interactively, creating a Location
will fail too:
