[GRASS-dev] wxgui not working in ubuntu feisty

[Daniel Calvelo]

Hi Carlos,

The problem is not related to wx: you have all that is needed.

The problem comes from icon management: an icon named gui-overlay.gif
which should be in $GISBASE/etc/gui/icons isn't there, and that flops
the whole initialisation.

Work-around:create some icon posing as gui-overlay in that position, say:

# cp $GISBASE/etc/gui/icons/gui-georect.gif
$GISBASE/etc/gui/icons/gui-overlay.gif

Daniel.
