 ^^^^^ compiled from source, not the Debian package right?


works fine for me.   (Debian/testing; compiled from source)

next lines for me are:
PS-PAINT: reading vector file <roads in PERMANENT> ...
BOUNDS -103.870807 -103.629429 44.375170 44.503793

PS-PAINT: creating color table for <soils in PERMANENT> ...
PS-PAINT: PostScript file "soil.ps" successfully written.

can you go back and test again, or is this historical?

what about other operations with the roads vector? v.info, d.vect etc?


here's an idea: how old is your data set? maybe need to run
"v.build.all" if it is more than a few months old?
