[GRASSLIST:8037] Order of ops for GRASS with GDAL support install?

BABA Yoshihiko has been doing a great job getting GDAL and GRASS working
under the fink package manager, but I'm noticing a slightly odd way of
getting GRASS with GDAL support -- am I correct in noticing there are
cyclical dependencies, e.g. You have to first compile gdal, then compile
grass with gdal support, then compile gdal with grass support? If this is
true, is there any way to get around this?

I am doping this procedure:

HOWTO compile GDAL/GRASS/GRASS-plugin:
  1. compile GDAL without GRASS support (see ./conf_gdal.sh [1] )
  2. compile GRASS itself (see ./conf_grass61_linux.sh [1] )
  3. configure/compile/install GDAL/GRASS plugin (see ./conf_install_gdal_grass_plugin.sh [1])
  4. link GRASS libs into /usr/local/lib/
  5. run 'ldconfig' (as root)

Hope this helps

Sorry: revised procedure (I just tested it on a "fresh" machine):

HOWTO compile OGR/GRASS/GRASS-plugin:
  1. compile GDAL/OGR without GRASS support (see ./conf_gdal.sh )
  2. compile GRASS itself (see ./conf_grass61_linux.sh )
  3. link GRASS libs into /usr/local/lib/
  4. run 'ldconfig' (as root)
  5. run this script to configure/compile/install OGR/GRASS plugin
     (may require root permissions)

Frank, we are looking forward to the unification of the GRASS drivers :slight_smile:
