I am having trouble getting the Grass GUI map window mouse coordinates to
display Lat-Long WGS84 coordinates in the lower-left corner of the display
window.
I checked the GUI settings Projection tab, and it is set to EPSG:4326,
and references /usr/local/share/proj/epsg, but I can't find this file anywhere
on my system.
Here are the closest matches:
cd /usr
find . -name "*epsg*"

I have there /usr/share/proj/epsg
but even if you can’t find it, entering 4326 and proj string
+proj=longlat +datum=WGS84 +no_defs +type=crs
should do it. Then, you have to switch that on in map display settings (see map display toolbar) → Status bar → Display coordinates in different CRS
The idea was to move the epsg panel in GUI settings to the map display settings, but this part never got finished…

Yes, I have this proj string in place in the Projection tab.
I don't see any option for 'Display coordinates in different CRS' in Map
Display -> Status Bar though. The options I have are:
Coordinates
Display Extent
Computational Region
Display Geometry
Map Scale
Go to XY coordinates

This is what I have in GRASS 8.2.1


However, to make it work then, you need to select the preferred CRS in the GUI main menu: Settings > Preferences > Projections

Nevermind, I synced my grass source tree to the latest release, rebuilt, and I
see the option in the GUI for alternative coordinates display now.
