Hi,
I got the following error when making r.digit:
GRASS_FAKE_START=1 GISBASE=... dist.i686-pc-cygwin/bin/r.digit
--html-description
ERROR: MAPSET fakestart not found.
r.digit does not call G_parser(), so it cannot generate usage. But it
fails with "Programmer error: no flags or options" error after
inserting G_parser() to make a usage file. "No flags or options" can
be intended by programmers, should it be something like fatal errors?
Thanks,
Huidae Cho

This error happens in several modules. Someone will have to debug
it and add further fakestart tricks into libgis.
In this case the line in main.c
polyfile = G_tempfile();
is the problem (the function needs to be extended as it was done
for e.g. G_gisinit().
To debug it, just set in a shell all the variables such as
export GRASS_FAKE_START=1
export GISBASE=/path/to/dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/lib
ddd /path/to/bin/r.digit --html-description

You mean above problem? No, that should not stop compilation.

I mean "do we need the 'Programmer error: no flags or options' error?"
If no options or flags are defined, it is intended by developers, so
the module should continue instead of exit even if G_parser() is
called to generate usage..

Agreed.
