I am a first time GRASS user, and have very little GIS experience. I installed
GRASS 6.0.0 on my Linux (Fedora Core 3) machine. I installed all the minimum
requirements. I had to install it without postgresql, as GRASS couldn't find
the libraries. Other than than, I istalled gdal, tcl/tk, Mesa-3.x, fftw,
libtiff, mysql, unixODBC, lesstif, R language and Freetype2. I downloaded the
spearfish mapset, and I am trying to open it. The following error is given:
GRASS 6.0.0 (spearfish60):/usr/local/grass-6.0.0/bin.i686-pc-linux-gnu >
Error

FC3 RPMs for GDAL: (instructions from Craig Aumann)
----
To install GRASS, you will likely also need to install the following
RPMS:
- fftw-2.1.5-5.i386.rpm (version >= 2.1) available at http://www.rpmfind.net (I believe it is also part of Fedora 3 Extras
for i386).
The gdal package does require a number of libraries included with
PostreSQL. Perhaps the easiest way to satisfy these requirements is
to add the application PostgreSQL via Add/Remove Applications under
the Applications->System Settings menu. The GRASS RPM is compiled with
full database support for ODBC, MYSQL and PostgreSQL; however, to use
these databases with GRASS they will need to be installed on your
system. MySQL can be installed using Add/Remove Applications as well.
Note that fully installing PostgreSQL requires further setup beyond
that done by via the automated Add/Removing Applications. See the
PostgreSQL website for instructions. This is only necessary if you
want to use PostgreSQL with GRASS.
