[GRASSLIST:2622] Compilation of grass54src_cvs

[Aldo Clerici]

Dear GRASS user,
I'm trying to compile GRASS5.3 (grass53src_cvs_snaps..> 14-feb-2004 05:49)
following the instructions of /grass5/source/README.html.
The commands
        gunzip grass53src........tar.gz
        tar -xvf grass53src......tar

worked well, but the new directory mentioned in the instructions:

.........
       A) If you have "root" access to your machine:

          Jump into the new directory "grass5.0.X" (change X to the current
          release number):
            cd grass5.0.X
.........

is not created. The questions are:
does the snapshot version require a different installing procedure?
may be the directory is created with a very different name (CVS?) ?
have I to manually create the directory ?

Many thanks in advance
