[GRASS-user] make command (install add on)

GRASS GRASS user

Hi,

I want to test the interesting net.analyze addons (mostly because of
v.net.distance). I've downloaded it but now not able to install it... :frowning:

Following the instruction first I changed the directory to the path where
the downloaded addons are saved:

cd Documents/temp/net.analyze

Then I tried the make command:

make MODULE_TOPDIR=/Applications/GRASS-6.4.app/Contents/MacOS/

As a result I get the an error:

make: *** Makefile: Is a directory. Stop.

Does someone know what this could mean and what I'm doing wrong?

Tusend tack,

schorschli

Are you sure about this directory?

MODULE_TOPDIR should point to the GRASS installation directory which
contains bin/, lib/ and other GRASS stuff.

On Linux it compiles ok but I have no experience (nor access) to MacOSX.

Thanks for answering.

Yes, the directory is the one containing the grass-folders (bin/, lib/ and
others).

I could solve this problem. It was not a wrong MODULE_TOPDIR path, but wrong
extensions for the makefiles.

Now I can run the make command. But this is resulting in hunderts of errors
and warning. Here is a printscreen of the first couple of lignes in the
console...

So maybe its better to just give it up with the addons...

It appears that it does not find the GRASS include files in your MacOSX
installation. As Linux user, I have no clue - maybe someone else in the list?
