[GRASSLIST:2021] conversion of sites to 5.7 from 5.0

GRASS GRASS user

I am trying to convert some sites over to version 5.7 vector format, but am unable to use v.convert. I get the following:

GRASS 5.7.-cvs:~/Research/INLAS/GIS > v.convert input=bridges output=bridges
ERROR: Input vector was not found.

Yet, when I list the sites, I get:

----------------------------------------------
site list files available in mapset PERMANENT:
bridges hatchery recreation

----------------------------------------------

What am I missing?

Thanks,
C.

Did you run
  g.list vect
or
  g.list oldvect
?

Note that your 'bridges' map must be present in the old vector format.

Since you refer to 'sites', v.in.sites might be the right module.
v.in.sites help
Description:
Converts a GRASS site_lists file into a vector file.
