[GRASS-dev] New GRASS for Mac binaries

I still don’t know what has been happening with my attempts to run my own binaries. But following up on thoughts from William and Vaclav, I’m chalking it up to dropbox incomplete syncing. I’ve gone ahead and posted new versions for GRASS 7, GRASS 6.5, and GRASS 6.4 to the web site <http://grassmac.wikidot.com/downloads>. If anyone cares to try them and let me know, I’d appreciate it. I’m heading out of town but will see if I can test sometime during the trip.

Hi Michael,

thanks to Stefano Cavallari (not on the GRASS lists) the bug for other users has a temporary solution:

LANG=en_UK.UTF-8 '/Applications/GRASS/GRASS-7.0.app/Contents/MacOS/grass.sh’

This will launch GRASS properly from other users than the main one.

Interesting. Thanks.

But in my case, I AM the main user and owner. I THINK it was a problem with my Dropbox syncing.

Perhaps, it would be safer to sync tar (tar.gz, zip, ...) and add
compression and decompression to your workflow. I'm not sure how Dropbox
handles changes of large amount of strange files.

That was what I used to do, but have switched to doing this all on DropBox so I can work back and forth across different computers. Part of this is a dropbox issue, part has to do with connection speeds, and part involves changing some of my workflows.
