Hi all and thanks to Hamish and Markus,

Eventually I managed to compile both the codes (grass50_exp and grass57). 
One error was reported at the end of make and seems to be related to the 3d 
modules (is that correct?):


GRASS GIS source code compiled.

Compilation error in module: src.contrib/GMSL/g3d (ignored)

* In case of errors please check following web page for hints:
    http://grass.itc.it/grass5/source/compilation_hints.html

cp -f error.log error.log.i686-pc-linux-gnu


What I do not like is that non interactive version of g.region does not want 
to work due to problems with the PROJ library. I recently installed PROJ 
4.4.7 and libproj.so.0 resides in /usr/local/lib. I also gave the 
--with-proj-libs at configure and it did not complain. But whenever I invoke 
the g.region command, it returns a message like this:

GRASS:/home > g.region -p
g.region: error while loading shared libraries: libproj.so.0: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory

This is true for GRASS 5.0 and for GRASS 5.7. There are also some other 
commands making the same problem (like v.in.gshhs and some ther).

I use the g.region command often and to manually set all the environment 
variables every time would be a time consuming process. What should I do?

Thanks, Miha Staut
