[GRASS-dev] wxGUI doesn't start in newest GRASS 7 svn

Something changed in the past 24 hours so that the wxPython GUI won't start in GRASS 7 (trunk). Here is the error. I have to leave for a bit, but will also try to track it down if need be.

This error is magically gone. I don't know where it came from or how I fixed it. I tried changing my .profile file and .bashrc files, but ended up with them as before. And all works OK.
