[Gdal-dev] GDAL changes affecting GRASS?

[William Kyngesburye]

Whew!

It's Postgres.  When I leave out Postgres support in GDAL, GRASS  
behaves.  It doesn't matter whether I build Postgres support into  
GRASS or not, as long as it is in GDAL, parts of GRASS don't like  
GDAL (r.in.gdal works, btw).

I'm using Postgres 8.0.4 + PostGIS 1.0.4 right now, but at the time I  
noticed the problem it was Postgres 8.0.3 + PostGIS 1.0.3, and I  
think I was at Postgres 8.0.3 at a time when it did work, but PostGIS  
went thru a few versions (1.0.x).  The only big change I see in there  
is adding readline support to Postgres.


(I'll drop this into my bug report also and see if anyone has an idea  
now)
