[GRASS-dev] [EXTERNAL] Re: [GRASS-user] GRASS GIS 7.8.1 released with PROJ 6 and GDAL 3 support

[Newcomb, Doug]

A bit confused.  From the command line this morning on the Windows version
of 7.8.1 , I was able to run r.external to link to a vrt raster file and it
seems to have worked fine ( GUI is another matter) .  In what way is
r.external not working?
