Rashad,

Hello Michael,

Could you post the log saying that here when installing grass-dev?.

FYI, there is a grass-addons package[1]. But only for grass6

Thanks much for the explanation. Does anyone know if we need grass-dev for running g.extension? For some reason, when we started to install it, we got a message that it would wipe out several important software packages we are using.

yes. this was a bug in packaging which I couldnt get time to fix. But installing grass-gui package will help to solve the problem.

sudo apt-get install grass-gui

sudo apt-get install grass should install everything as this is a virtual package but it not doing it right way. I may find some time this week to fix these and merge some very important patches from debianGIS.

To sum up for now
you need to install grass like
apt-get install grass-core grass-gui

Let me know if this works so that i can confirm this issue.

Turns out that the GUI is a separate download and installation. That seems odd to me, but we managed to solve this.
