[GRASS-dev] OSX 10.10 Yosemite + Homebrew - Summary

Carlos_Guano_Grohman · August 5, 2015, 2:33pm

OK, this is a summary of what works and what doesn’t work when installing GRASS 7.1svn through homebrew on OSC 10.10 Yosemite (still need to test these on El Capitan 10.11).

libLAS: although properly installed by homebrew, it’s not found by ./configure:

:==> ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/grass-71/HEAD --enable-shared --with-
checking for gdal-config… /usr/local/opt/gdal/bin/gdal-config
rm: conftest.dSYM: is a directory
checking whether to use libLAS… yes
checking for liblas-config… /usr/local/opt/liblas/bin/liblas-config
configure: error: *** Unable to locate libLAS library.

so give up of liblas for now. The spearfish sample location also won’t work, so install with:

brew install --HEAD rkrug/head-only/grass-71 --with-openblas --without-nc_spm_08_grass7

after installation, add these to .bash_profile:

export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8

export PYTHONPATH=brew --prefix/lib/python2.7/site-packages:brew --prefix/lib/python2.7/site-packages/wx-3.0-osx_cocoa
:$PYTHONPATH

And it works!

:$PYTHONPATH

And it works!

Hi Carlos and Rainer,

I am testing it now and the installation goes well, but I can't launch it
because it doesn't find wx. So I exported the PYTHONPATH as you did and
then I am getting:

Cleaning up temporary files...
Starting GRASS GIS...
This program needs access to the screen.
Please run with a Framework build of python, and only when you are
logged in on the main display of your Mac.
Error in GUI startup. If necessary, please report this error to the GRASS
developers.
Switching to text mode now.

Does anyone know what does it mean?

BTW, is there a way we could use wxPython 2.8 (32bit) instead of 3? Version
3 is not working very well on Mac yet, I tried to fix couple of things in
GRASS, but there are some bugs in the library itself.

Thank you,

Anna

Carlos

Hi Anna

I think you can use other wx version with homebrew but I’m not sure, I used 3.0 because homebrew installed it and I didn’t knew of the issues you commented.
As for the error you are getting, maybe it is because you are using a non-homebrew wx?
