[GRASSLIST:5273] grass installation and ogdi

GRASS GRASS user

I would like to switch from ArcInfo to GRASS for the analysis of wildlife data, but am having difficulty installing it on Linux Mandrake 10.1.

When I try to install grass 5.7, 5.4, or 5.0 I receive a message similar to the following:
Sorry, the following package(s) can't be selected:
gdal-python-1.2.2-2thac.i586 (due to unsatisfied libgdal1[==1.2.2]) libgdal1-1.2.2-1mdk.i586 (due to unsatisfied libogdi31.so)

When I found the package ogdi and tried to install it I continually receive the message:
Some package requested cannot be installed:
ogdi-3.1.2-1mdk.src.rpm (due to unsatisfied zlib-devel) OR (unsatisfied libzlib for ogdi-3.1.2-1mdk.i586.rpm)

Thus, installation of GRASS appears to depend on the zlib, which seems to install just fine although I'm not sure how to test that.

I've tried a couple versions of the grass, odgi, and zlib's without success. Here's the list of packages I have.

expat-1.95.8-1mdk.i586.rpm
expat-1.95.8-1mdk.ppc.rpm
expat-1.95.8-1mdk.src.rpm
gdal-1.2.5-2mdk.src.rpm
gdal-python-1.2.2-2thac.i586.rpm
grass-5.0.3-3mdk.i586.rpm
grass54-5.4.0-1mdk.src.rpm
grass57-5.7.0-3mdk.src.rpm
libfftw2-2.1.5-3mdk.i586.rpm
libfftw2-devel-2.1.5-3thac.i586.rpm
libgdal1-1.2.2-1mdk.i586.rpm
libpq3-7.4.5-4mdk.i586.rpm
libproj0-4.4.8-1mdk.i586.rpm
ogdi-3.1.2-1mdk.i586.rpm
ogdi-3.1.2-1mdk.src.rpm
proj-4.4.8-1mdk.src.rpm
xterm-196-1mdk.i586.rpm
zlib-1.2.1.1-3mdk.src.rpm
zlib-1.2.2.1-1mdk.src.rpm

I'm installing these by using the root console and typing:

urpmi ogdi-3.1.2-1mdk.i586.rpm

I would be grateful for any help on how to fix this problem. I'm new to Linux and am open to using a different operating system.

Jesse
after a very frustrating experience Installing GRASS57
I have succeeded a couple of days ago.
It is good news that I also have installed on
Mandrake10.

Please follow the steps given and U will make it.
ARC-INFO can be substituted by GRASS57. GRASS57 does
much more than ARC-INFO, as it is a RS GIS too.

Hi,

I am having problems with the v.out.ogr command (and with PROJ in
general):

v.out.ogr input=mapa dsn=./ layer=layer
v.out.ogr: relocation error:
/usr/local/grass-5.7.cvs/lib/libgrass_gproj.so: undefined symbol:
pj_get_def

I have tried to add the library path to /etc/ld.so.conf and run
/sbin/ldconf but it does not work.
Also I have tried to rebuild proj.4 but the problem remains.

Another programs of proj neither seems to work properly:
nad2nad
nad2nad: Symbol `pj_release' has different size in shared object,
consider re-linking
Rel. 4.4.9, 29 Oct 2004

Thank you in advance

Hello Ravi,

I see that you use Mandrake 10 as well. I had trouble compiling GRASS 5.7 on mandrake 10. It always tells me that following modules cannot be compiled (attached is the error log). Did you have any experience in that direction? Thanks for sharing your info.

Hi,

I am using Mandrake 10.0 with updates - no problem.
To identify your error, go to

  cd db/drivers/ogr

and run
  make

Then please report the error message.

wasn't there a pre-packaged version of GRASS in the mandrake cooker?
