[GRASS-user] WinGRASS build up (WIP)

GRASS GRASS user
1

Dear all,

after several months of having WinGRASS builds down I have finally
good news. I am slowly restoring daily builds (including addons). I
will keep you informed.

You can test WinGRASS builds of version 7.8.0 (first Python3-ready
GRASS version!) from OSGeo4W network and standalone installer [1].
Addons for version 7.8.0 will be restored soon.

BIG THANKS especially to Juergen for PR [2] and Helli for testing it!!!

Hi,

Addons for version 7.8.0 will be restored soon.

updates:

1) first build of Addons for version 7.8.0 published [1]. I have also
uploaded new osgeo4w and standloane builds of 7.8.0 (*-2) containing
locally applied fix [2], see standalone installer [3].

2) also 32bit builds uploaded, both osgeo4w and standalone [4]

Please test. With the new builds you should be able to install addons.

Hi Martin,

I added "experimental" packages to OSGeo4W (ie. only available if you tick Exp
in the OSGeo4W installer):

- PROJ 6.2.1
- GDAL 3.0.2
- liblwgeom 3.0.0
- OGDI 4.1.0
- Rebuilds of QGIS 3.10.0, QGIS 3.4.13 and spatialite 4.3.0a against the above
  packages
- Backward compatibility packages gdal204dll and proj5dll that carry the original
  DLLs from PROJ 5.2.0 and GDAL 2.4.1

The only missing bit is GRASS built against new GDAL and PROJ. Once that's is
available I can remove the "experimental" tag.

Hi Jürgen,

just updated my OSGeo4W in normal mode (not tick Exp), QGIS, GRASS 7.8.0, I'm getting an error that gdal300.dll and proj6.2.x.dlll is missing.

Was probably fixed, while you were hitting it.

Any idea when GRASS will be updated with the new dependencies?

Any idea when GRASS will be updated with the new dependencies?

see https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/136#issuecomment-547497328

"Sure it is still GDAL2"

is OSGeo4W still default in gdal2/proj5? is gdal3/proj6 still in OSGeo4W experimental/testing?

in #136, environment is pointing to gdal-dev proj-dev, which I assume is gdal3/proj6, right?

GRASS is in a RC cycle for GRASS 7.8.1: RC1

a possible workflow may be (?):

(1) update/adapt #136 to reflect a default gdal3/proj6 in OSGeo4W
(2) apply updated PR to issue a GRASS 7.8.1 RC2
(3) switch OSGeo4W to a default gdal3/proj6
(4) binary release GRASS 7.8.1 RC2 in OSGeo4W

@Martin: any opinion?

Kind regards
Helmut

I went ahead an did all what is proposed there and now you can build GRASS with
GDAL3 and PROJ6 using the "experimental" packages. Once that's done we can
flip the switch and take all the "experimental" packages live - they are only
waiting for GRASS.

in #136, environment is pointing to gdal-dev proj-dev, which I assume is gdal3/proj6, right?

No, GDAL master (3.1 2b) and PROJ master (7.0 2b). And #136 is for master
(ie. grass-daily)

#137 was for the release branch and was merged.

GRASS is in a RC cycle for GRASS 7.8.1: RC1

With #118 merged - so it should already work with GDAL3 and PROJ6.

a possible workflow may be (?):

(1) update/adapt #136 to reflect a default gdal3/proj6 in OSGeo4W
(2) apply updated PR to issue a GRASS 7.8.1 RC2
(3) switch OSGeo4W to a default gdal3/proj6
(4) binary release GRASS 7.8.1 RC2 in OSGeo4W

Or just build GRASS with the "test" packages, upload it and then we can remove
all the "experimental" tags.

Hi Jürgen,

Or just build GRASS with the "test" packages, upload it and then we can remove
all the "experimental" tags.

just checked OSGeo4W, to be sure:

OSGeo4W normal mode

GDAL 2.4.1-1
PROJ 5.2.0-1
GEOS 3.8.0-1

OSGeo4W testing/experimental mode, update would be

GDAL 2.4.1-1 => GDAL 3.0.2-1
PROJ 5.2.0-1 => PROJ 6.2.1-1
GEOS 3.8.0-1

I could do a test compilation with OSGeo4W testing/experimental mode and issue a

grass-7.8.1RC1-2.tar.bz2

with test in setup.hint.

not sure how ready Martin's build environment is to switch also to build addons ?!

Helmut
