[GRASS-user] Clarifying 'no' comments post configuration

Hi,

I've installed GRASS 6.4.2 and wanted to check if the the features indicated
by 'no' are no longer supported/deprecated?

BLAS support: no

Cheers,
Richard

You need to switch it on in the configure step:

BLAS support: no

--with-blas

DWG support: no

--with-opendwg

GLw support: no

--with-glw

There are the respective switches:
  --with-XXX-includes=DIRS
  --with-XXX-libs=DIRS
if needed.

Note that BLAS is almost unused (only on gmath lib). And v.in.dwg is
likely outdated for the latest OpenDWG libraries. There is a related
Addon available.

Hope this helps
Markus

BLAS support: no

Adds additional functionality to the gmath library. Nothing in GRASS
currently uses that functionality.

DWG support: no

Required for v.in.dwg, which also requires the OpenDWG library, which
isn't free software.

GLw support: no

Required for r3.showdspf, which also requires Motif.
