 <a href="http://www.gdal.org">GDAL</a> library, so you need to
 install GDAL to use <em>v.external</em> and external OGR layers.

+The simple feature data model used by OGR is very different from the
+topological format used by GRASS. Instead of true topology, so called
+'pseudo topology' is created for data linked by v.external. User
+should learn the difference between those to formats, because some
+modules working correctly with GRASS native data, can produce wrong
+results with input layers created by <em>v.external</em>.
