[GRASS-user] grass 6.2 crashes when creating location

I just installed grass 6.2 using the max rpms:

yum -y localinstall gdal-1.3.2-max.1.fc6.i386.rpm
gdal-devel-1.3.2-max.1.fc6.i386.rpm
gdal-grass-1.3.2-1.fdr.fc6.i386.rpm geos-2.2.3-1.fc6.i386.rpm
geos-devel-2.2.3-1.fc6.i386.rpm geos-doc-2.2.3-1.fc6.i386.rpm
grass-6.2.1-1.fdr.fc6.i386.rpm jasper-1.701.0.uuid-1.i386.rpm
jasper-devel-1.701.0.uuid-1.i386.rpm

Grass starts fine but crashes when creating a location based on
Projection Values. Also, the EPSG codes are not available to create a
location base on EPSG codes.

I did have some issues installing the geos rpm (geos not signed error)
but I just edited the yum.config file: gpgcheck=0

Do in need the proj rpm from the min rpms as well

Any Ideas?

It's fixed in CVS for 6.3. No ideas if it's backported to 6.2 (IIRC no).

Workaround - download Spearfish dataset, open it, close it and then try again.

Maris,
I gave your workaround a try but Grass crash right after I "Enter
Grass". Is it possible to create a fresh install. I attempted yum
remove ....rpm but with no luck
