[GRASS-user] cvs - error Ubuntu 7.10

Hello

I upgraded from Ubuntu 6.06 to 7.10 and since then I got

child process exited abnormally
Error in startup script: can't read "parts(w)": no such variable
    while executing
"set $parts(w) [expr round($parts(w)/$parts(ewres))*$parts(ewres)]"
    (procedure "MapCanvas::zoom_gregion" line 16)
    invoked from within
"MapCanvas::zoom_gregion $mon"

    invoked from within
"main $argc $argv"
    (file "/usr/local/grass-6.3.cvs/etc/gm/gm.tcl" line 640)

when I tried to enter location mapset.

Then I updated my grass cvs and got following errors:

How do I solve these problems to get grass running again?

Hi Christine!

I really don't know how to help with this errors.

However,

a. Why don't sudo apt-get install grass (GRASS 6.2 is in the Gutsy
repositories)

or

b.Why don't you try to re-compile GRASS from source (?).
----------------------------------------------------------------

. Decide where you want to put your grass source code

e.g. /usr/local/src

Go there and create a directory (e.g. GRASS63)

* Give the appropriate rights... "sudo chown yourloginid:yourloginid
/usr/local/src/GRASS63" and "sudo chmod a+rx GRASS63/"

. Download the source code via cvs
[ You need cvs tool -- install with "sudo apt-get install cvs" ]

* Before trying to compile the source code, check the pre-requisities &
configure. There is a script (written for Ubuntu 6.06 -- link is below ) in
which all necessary steps are described.

. Download and check it out "less makegrass.sh"

Hope this helps.

This typically indicates a GDAL problem. What does
g.region -p
say?

Hello Christine,

so you have to fix the GDAL installation first. Without
that GRASS won't run at all.

Hello Markus

This is what g.region -p says:

g.region: error while loading shared libraries: libgdal.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Hello Markus

I had already reinstalled gdal, but that didn't help.
I solved the problem as follows:

libgdal.so.1 was in /usr/local/lib/
I had to add the directory in /etc/ld.so.conf
and rerun "ldconfig".
Now Grass works again.

Thanks for your help.
