So if you have a Debian install where do you get the grid shift files
and where do you copy them?<br>
Thanks<br>

I have learned that the DebianGIS packagers are unwilling to distribute the
grid shift component until there is a licensing statement available for the
grid shift file .zip file. I am following up with them. In time I hope
Debian and Ubuntu will include grid shift files (possibly as an optional
package).

Thanks for following-up on this. I imagine that quite a number of
mailing list posts regarding datum shifts can be traced back to this
very issue!
Cheers,
Dylan

<pre wrap="">Wow, that's a pretty major omission. I of course respect their
position, but it impacts anyone depending on Proj as a shared library
- PostGIS, MapServer, etc. And they're a bit inconsistent if Debian
GRASS is including the grid shifts (but we'll pretend that I didn't
say that so that the GRASS maintainers don't get yelled at).
