Please post

uname -a

I suspect that you have a 32bit computer while these binaries are for
64bit machines.

Sidenote: I really hope that one day Ubuntu launchpad will deliver

Sidenote: I really hope that one day Ubuntu launchpad will deliver
GRASS binaries...

Since all code is well imported from SVN to LP:
https://code.launchpad.net/~grass/grass/releasebranch_6_4

It is /*only/* an issue of updating the debian files:

https://code.launchpad.net/~grass/grass/grass64_release_debian

All members of the GRASS GIS team can do this:
https://launchpad.net/~grass/+members

once this is automatically taken up by the recipe:
https://code.launchpad.net/~grass/+recipe/grass64

Last, I deactivated it as it was continuously failing (see below).

Since 2 years I am not working with GRASS on day2day basis.

Thus, there's no time and current need.

I would be grateful if someone could assist and co-maintain the GRASS
project on Launchpad.

I am willing to assist in setting everything up.

Regards.

If you get multiple errors, you need to deal with them in the order they
appear in the error log. If you get an error building a library, you will
also get errors from anything which uses the library.

Hi Tim,

I was having the same error in openSUSE OBS about gui/wxpython and it is now fixed in svn (branch_64).

I see that there is a direct mirror from subversion to bazaar in LP. This should trigger a build on every new commit through the recipe, but is this really needed? Perhaps this should be done weekly.

I had a look at the debian files in case I could create a grass7 (like the one for openSUSE) but the rule file is very complicated. Is it due to lintian checks?

I was having the same error in openSUSE OBS about gui/wxpython and it is
now fixed in svn (branch_64).

OK, I requested a build. let's see.

I see that there is a direct mirror from subversion to bazaar in LP.

All code is here:
https://code.launchpad.net/~grass

This should trigger a build on every new commit through the recipe, but
is this really needed? Perhaps this should be done weekly.

LP only has daily or upon request.

I had a look at the debian files in case I could create a grass7 (like
the one for openSUSE) but the rule file is very complicated. Is it due
to lintian checks?

I'd taken that from the original debian package and modified only
slightly to the needs of less robust daily builds.

The package rules is a real science...
I am still in the lower undergrad level...

Here I am (to try). I've been through this small thread, checked relevant
launchpad pages, understand more or less what is to be done.

I am willing to assist in setting everything up.

Let's say I have zero idea on how to do this (using bzr). Where do I start?
