     Type:  defect   |      Status:  new                      
 Priority:  normal   |   Milestone:  6.4.3                    
Component:  Vector   |     Version:  svn-releasebranch64      
 Keywords:  v.hull   |    Platform:  All

 If the current region is not set to the vector map, v.hull
 fails with:

 {{{
 v.hull training_turkey_087VI174 out=training_turkey_087VI174_hull
 ERROR: Convex hull calculation requires at least three points. Exiting.
 }}}

 The reason is in main.c, line 311:

 {{{
     /* load site coordinates */
     G_get_window(&window);
     numSitePoints = loadSiteCoordinates(&Map, &points, all->answer,
 &window);
 }}}

 ...

 In loadSiteCoordinates()
 {{{
     /* copy window to box */
     Vect_region_box(window, &box);
 }}}

 I wonder why it is made region sensitive (untypical for GRASS
 vector commands)...
