Hi,
Trying to install grass-6.4.6svn on a fresh debian jessie, I have no
errors during compilation/installation. But when I launch grass64, no
gui opens up, and I get the following error message on the terminal :

I tried to rebuild after a distclean, even purged completely my svn src
directory, but the error is still the same.

While I am all for fixing 6.4, is there a reason that you cannot
switch to GRASS GIS 7? Just curious...

While I have no special idea (it will be about char encoding), can it
be that you use it in French locale?
Hello Markus,
thank you for caring for my rather 'dated' question indeed!
I keep a permanent update build of grass7 from svn, but do not (yet) use
it for production purpose. Last time I tried to work on a project with
it, I noticed the digiting tool was very unstable, where I had no
problem with 6.4. At that moment I did not have time to dig into what
was wrong, nor pass information on the list.
But it is the occasion to give it a try again. Last week I started a
course at the university, students asked me if I could migrate their
workstations to grass 7, so...

I don't really know, I'll try after setting back locale to default.
No, menus usually displayed in english. Things began to be on the blink
after I upgraded my system -- python version jumped from 2.7.3 to 2.7.9.
Could be a python-related issue...
Anyway, as you half-suggested I'll take a leap in "seven", then
contribute with my potential bug reports !
Yes Vaclav, I will; I believe it's the very least one should do when
using free software as professional set of tools...

Please do, it is very important that you report what doesn't work for
you in 7 (i.e. why you are not using it).
