[GRASS-dev] where to make compiling instructions available

[Michael Barton]

I've put the instructions and supporting files onto the wiki page you made. Thanks for setting it up!

https://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Compiling_on_MacOSX_using_Anaconda

I think it all reads and links fine now, but it took a lot to get it formatted and linked correctly. Mediawiki is an infuriating variant of standard wiki and markdown.

Hi!

At this point I think the building instructions for anaconda (and later macports) should be placed in grasswiki as a new page linked from "Compile and Install" mac section [1]. Maybe: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__grasswiki.osgeo.org_wiki_Compiling-5Fon-5FMacOSX-5Fusing-5FAnaconda&d=DwIFaQ&c=l45AxH-kUV29SRQusp9vYR0n1GycN4_2jInuKy6zbqQ&r=lk-7X7CEOMDN8GaGVhiDsuO6gEp1wbG6nfT1XEEEtR0&m=oJi6OFZdzEJSCtUfsG9WNrH4x_wu5Fm1Yv5pZcltUNw&s=Im8NH4J8EQ-2ZwfWaxxFCosFb2N7wAwnDiQlq2wNyWM&e= .

I know we discussed [2] replacing/updating the text of macosx/ReadMe.md file, but I realised that that particular instruction (however outdated) is related to the whole of the content of that directory (which in turn is presently not functional, reported as issue #457 [3]). So I believe we should leave that directory and the ReadMe as is, until the issue is addressed.

The new wiki pages with instructions for anaconda and macports may perhaps be referenced to in INSTALL file.

Setting up a build script in source for GitHub Actions would be more than welcome(!), but doesn’t contradict the idea of publishing the instructions on wiki.
