 I receiving an error while trying to link a geotiff file with r.external
 into a spearfish60 location. The file was previously generated with
 r.out.gdal.
 The import of the same file with r.in.gdal works without problems.
 The error message of r.external:
 {{{
 ERROR: Missing type: field in file
        '/home/soeren/grassdata/spearfish60/user1/cell_misc/test/f_format'
 }}}

 Here the workflow:
 {{{
 GRASS 7.0.svn (spearfish60):~ > g.region rast=elevation.dem at PERMANENT
 GRASS 7.0.svn (spearfish60):~ > r.out.gdal input=elevation.dem at PERMANENT
 format=GTiff type=Float64 output=elevation.30m.tiff -c
 Exporting to GDAL data type: Float64
 Checking GDAl data type and nodata value
  100%
 Input raster map contains cells with NULL-value (no-data). The value nan
 will be used to represent no-data values in the input map. You can specify
 a nodata value with the nodata option.

 r.out.gdal complete.
 GRASS 7.0.svn (spearfish60):~ > r.external input=elevation.30m.tiff
 output=test
