Comment (by mmetz):

 Replying to [ticket:3694 BastienFR]:
 > The `WHERE` statement from `v.generalize` do not seem to work anymore.

 Looking at the manual G7:v.generalize:

 layer=string
     Layer number or name ('-1' for all layers)

     A single vector map can be connected to multiple database tables. This
 number determines which table to use. When used with direct OGR access
 this is the layer name.

     Default: -1

 By default all layers are processed, in which case the cats and where
 options are ignored because they require a single layer to be selected.

 Results are as expected when using `v.generalize layer=1 where="CNTY<1"
 ...`.

 Note that a boundary is generalized as soon as any of the areas it belongs
 to fulfils the where condition. In a topological vector model as in GRASS,
 the modification of a single boundary results in the modification of two
 areas.
