[GRASS-user] GPJ_wkt_to_grass error in making r.in.gdal

GRASS GRASS user

I was using this configure command
./configure --with-grass=no --with-png=internal --with-jpeg=internal
            --with-gif=internal --with-libtiff=internal
            --with-geotiff=internal --with-libz=internal --without-ogr
            --without-pg --without-ogdi --with-gdal=/usr/local/bin/gdal-config

I tried it with the "--without-ogr" deleted. This time when I make grass I get errors in r.in.gdal, v.out.ogr, and v.in.ogr. Should I be using "--with-ogr"?

Have you disabled OGR support in GDAL? The GPJ_wkt_to_grass() function
will only be compiled into the GRASS gproj library if OGR is available. If
you don't have OGR you won't be able to convert co-ordinate system
information into the forms used in other GIS. Perhaps the call to
GPJ_wkt_to_grass() should be conditionalised on HAVE_OGR, but especially
if you're using GDAL it's pretty unlikely to not have OGR compiled into
it.

I'm trying to build grass63 from source. I get most of the way there but then
run into a problem with the grass make. What breaks is in the r.in.gdal
make. I'm told there are undefined references to GPJ_wkt_to_grass. I'm using
CentOS, which is a variant of redhat. I have (I think) successfully
installed GDAL without grass, postgresql, and proj. There was some traffic
in August about someone else having this problem but I can't find where a
solution was found.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks, Jerry

You also need to re-run the GRASS configure script so that it will pick up that OGR is enabled now, and re-compile the parts of GRASS that will be affected by the change: it's possible that all you need to do is:
cd lib/proj
make clean
make

and then a top-level make should pick up all the functions v.*.ogr, r.in.gdal need to run. g.proj should also have improved functionality; you might try a make clean in general/g.proj too after re-compiling lib/proj. g.proj fails gracefully (i.e. compiles, but with reduced functionality) if OGR is disabled, whereas r.*.gdal and v.*.ogr just fail to compile.
