It's still me, and I didn't solve it yet. I have some update about my trials though.<br>First of all, I thought to check the permission of the .svn folder, because I am on a Red Hat and I don't have root permission. .svn folder was owned in fact by root. This behavior looked strange to me, not being I a subversion guru, but I've found some possible explanation here [1]. Particularly, "when Subversion is accessing the repository directly off the file
system, it uses your file system permissions to access the repository. ". Well, at least i realized that when i checkout, i should svn co --username madi <br>Then I recompiled, making sure to address the binaries under the /home/somethingelse/bin folder and not under /usr/local, which i don't own.<br>
OK, last step,<br><br>GRASS 6.4.3svn (Europe):~ > g.extension r.stream.extract<br><br>Fetching <r.stream.extract> from GRASS-Addons SVN (be patient)...<br>svn: Can't change perms of file 'r.stream.extract/.svn/entries': Permission denied<br>
ERROR: GRASS Add-on r.stream.extract not found in repository or no network<br> connection or another problem<br><br>what I think is that the problem of g.extension in my case could be that i cannot add --username madi to the automatic svn co done by g.extension, hence i download r.stream.extract as root and of course i can't write it (compile) as madi afterwards. <br>
<br>Does my speculation make any sense to you?<br><br>Thanks,<br><br>madi<br><br><br>[1] <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/405690/in-subversion-can-i-be-a-user-other-than-my-login-name">http://stackoverflow.com/questions/405690/in-subversion-can-i-be-a-user-other-than-my-login-name</a><br>
