[GRASS-dev] Wxgui issue (probably due to non-standard python install)..

[Isaac Ullah]

Dear dev-list,

    I've got an Ubuntu 12.04 workstation on which I have been experimenting
with python for scientific computing  (e.g.,  ipython notebook, spyder,
etc.). During this process, I experimented with a lot of different python
modules, installed variously with apt-get or with pip. Before this
experimentation, GRASS 6.4.3-1 (from Ubuntu GIS-unstable PPA) was working
just fine, but now I am getting the following error upon start of GRASS:

> wxnviz.py: This module requires the NumPy module, which could not be
imported. It probably is not installed (it's not part of the standard
Python distribution). See the Numeric Python site (http://numpy.scipy.org)
for information on downloading source or binaries.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/grass64/etc/wxpython/wxgui.py", line 34, in <module>
    from lmgr.frame import GMFrame
  File "/usr/lib/grass64/etc/wxpython/lmgr/frame.py", line 46, in <module>
    from lmgr.layertree        import LayerTree, LMIcons
  File "/usr/lib/grass64/etc/wxpython/lmgr/layertree.py", line 37, in
<module>
    from mapdisp.frame       import MapFrame
  File "/usr/lib/grass64/etc/wxpython/mapdisp/frame.py", line 52, in
<module>
    from wxplot.profile     import ProfileFrame
  File "/usr/lib/grass64/etc/wxpython/wxplot/profile.py", line 23, in
<module>
    import wx.lib.plot as plot
  File
"/usr/lib64/python2.7/dist-packages/wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode/wx/lib/plot.py",
line 523, in <module>
    class PlotCanvas(wx.Panel):
  File
"/usr/lib64/python2.7/dist-packages/wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode/wx/lib/plot.py",
line 1817, in PlotCanvas
    _multiples = [(2., _Numeric.log10(2.)), (5., _Numeric.log10(5.))]
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'log10'


   Obviously, this is an issue with only the wxpython interface (cli still
works, as does old tcltk interface), and although the error stems from
wxNVIZ, I think it is due to GRASS being confused about where to find
NumPy... I've tried to "clean up" my python installs, including
reinstalling  both python 2.6 and 2.7, NumPy, SciPy, and wxWidgets (both
2.6 and 2.7). I've also reinstalled GRASS (and tried the older version of
6.4 in the standard Ubuntu repository), but this error still stands. Any
ideas about what I can do to fix it?

Many thanks for any help offered!
