[GRASS-dev] error in georeferencing points on import with v.in.ascii

[Michael Barton]

If it was just grabbing the coordinates from the screen, I would not be worried. But when I do a query, it is clearly pulling up the two points with the same x and y, and showing them with different topological coordinates. I suppose that could still be some kind of display artifact. I have to head out with friends now but will try the command to upload topology to see if that gets it right. But even if it does, the display should not be showing these two points in different places, a couple hundred meters apart.
