#958: v.krige does not run in GRASS 7
-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
Reporter: cmbarton | Owner: grass-dev at lists.osgeo.org

Platform: All | Cpu: All

Comment (by cmbarton):
I do appreciate the pointers. However, spgrass6 will not install because
rgdal won't install--and maybe other errors besides.
Easy access to the manual is in the module GUI. But the module GUI won't
launch without the many dependencies. So you need to look it up elsewhere
to try and figure out why.
I think it is great to have kriging available for GRASS. But I'm beginning
to think it is somewhat premature to ship it with the main GRASS
distribution and in the menu when it not only will not run with the normal
GRASS dependencies, but takes a LOT of external dependencies and special
compilations to even get it to launch.
A very positive thing about GRASS is that it is possible to enhance it in
many ways, and that an increasing number of sophisticated packages are
available in the addons library to do this.
However, I worry about having items in a standard GRASS distribution,
particularly items in the menu, that don't work out of the box. And
especially items in the standard distribution that require this much work
to get to run.
