Hi all, just trying to get GRASS 8 running on my laptop (Pop!_OS 20.10) and trying the generic 64-bit Linux binaries. Made sure all dependencies are installed, etc., (done this many times before), but getting a new error upon start up. Splash screen goes, and then I get the following before the new GUI can load:
Launching GUI in the background, please wait…
To run a command as administrator (user “root”), use “sudo ”.
See “man sudo_root” for details.

Goodbye from GRASS GIS
Seems like something to do with the GRASS 8 raster library? Is there a new dependency not listed in https://grass.osgeo.org/grass80/binary/linux/snapshot/REQUIREMENTS.html ? Any thoughts? FYI, I was able to run the two release candidates on the same OS (but different computer).
