I found ubuntugis-testig, but it only goes up to precise - I am looking for quantal.

Don't worry for now - I just compiled GRASS.

Cheers,

Rainer

I am maintaining it but since I was on travel. I couldnt update the build. Currently finishing
the "job" thing and I will update the packages most probably by tomorrow

yes. there is. unbuntugis-testing PPA

I found ubuntugis-testig, but it only goes up to precise - I am looking for quantal.

Don't worry for now - I just compiled GRASS.

What about contributing to the automatic development builds -- once
yours works?

Just push your changes to:
https://code.launchpad.net/~grass/grass/grass70_release_debian

Like:
bzr push lp:~grass/grass/grass70_release_debian

You may need to add yourself to the GRASS team at Launchpad:
https://launchpad.net/~grass/+members

If your updated debian files work well, we could re-enable the automatic
builds.

Another possibility is to update lp:~grass/grass/grass70_release_debian
with the following:
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntugis/+archive/ubuntugis-testing/+files
/grass70_7.0-1~svn55286~ubuntu2.debian.tar.gz

BTW, the same need to be done with the 6.4.x series.

I could give you hints if you get stuck. But since I am not on
day-to-day work at GRASS on Ubuntu right know I cannot update the
builders. No time.

Looking forward to your input.

Best regards.

OK, I did it.

Stable (grass6.4.X) Packages are in the grass-stable PPA:
https://code.launchpad.net/~grass/+archive/grass-stable

This includes Ubuntu 12.10 & 13.04!

So let's try to run the recipe daily without errors:
https://code.launchpad.net/~grass/+recipe/grass64

If you want to see how I modified the UbuntuGIS instructions to get the
recipe up, please have a look at:
https://code.launchpad.net/~grass/grass/grass64_release_debian
or the log here:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~grass/grass/grass64_release_debian/changes/

For Grass 7.0, recipe was just built for Ubuntu 12.10:
https://code.launchpad.net/~grass/+recipe/grass70

Respective packages are in the grass-devel PPA:
https://code.launchpad.net/~grass/+archive/grass-devel

The debian instructions can be found here:
https://code.launchpad.net/~grass/grass/grass70_release_debian
and the changes in respect to UbuntuGIS at:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~grass/grass/grass70_release_debian/changes/

Here a plea -- repeating from my last mail:
* I need help in maintaining this stuff!
* I am not a every day work with GRASS, especially on Ubuntu, these days.

* So I will deactivate the automatic builds again if they fail for 3-5
consecutive times.
* A failure of 1-2 times is usually OK, especially for GRASS7, when the
software is in development. This means that were were some changes in
the GRASS source code.

* If there are build many consecutive failures, the upstream changes are
big and require update of the debian instructions
* this is exactly where help from others is needed!!!
* Further along the road, I could also image that we package GRASS
AddOns for Ubuntu...

Kind regards,
Timmie

Hi Tim,

I can help you with building packages for GRASS. I am already pushing grass70 packages in ubuntugis-testing. So I am ok with packaging.

Please tell me what to do? Is there anything special about grass PPA?

Dear Rashad,
thanks for answering!

I can help you with building packages for GRASS. I am already pushing
grass70 packages in ubuntugis-testing. So I am ok with packaging.

Nice.

Please tell me what to do? Is there anything special about grass PPA?

As you can see here:
https://code.launchpad.net/~grass/+recipe/grass70
the packages are building nicely.

But on my 12.10. starting GRASS returns:

###
grass70

WELCOME TO GRASS 7.0.svn

1) Have at your side all available GRASS tutorials

   2) When working on your location, the following materials
      are extremely useful:
      - A topo map of your area
      - Current catalog of available computer maps

   3) Check the GRASS webpages for feedback mailinglists and more:
      http://grass.osgeo.org
      http://www.grass-gis.org

Hit RETURN to continue
Starting GRASS GIS...
python: can't open file '/usr/lib/grass/etc/gui/wxpython/gis_set.py':
[Errno 2] No such file or directory
Received EXIT message from GUI.
GRASS is not started. Bye.

###

--> this means there's something wrong in the debain/rules

If you could fix that, I think we are well off.

Just branch with bzr:
https://code.launchpad.net/~grass/grass/grass70_release_debian

change and upload again.

If you do not want to wait for LP builds, use pbuilder locally to test
your changes.

Feel free to ask if you have more questions!

Kind regards,
Timmie
