[Qgis-developer] processing.runalg() issue with grass algorithms

[Eric Goddard]

Alright, latest master (9e42c5b), with processing version
2.0-20131120. Running a custom tool that consists of the following
code results in an error:

##dem=raster
##radius=number 4
##lpf=output raster

lpf = processing.runalg("saga:simplefilter", dem, 0, 0, radius, None)


An error has occured while executing Python code:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Running the code in the console completes successfully. However, I'm
still unable to run a grass algorithm when the grass_region_parameter
and grass_region_cellsize_parameter are set to None.

Thanks,
Eric
