[GRASSLIST:4488] grass53 installation

[jun liang]

Ian,
  Thanks. You may be right.
  I have done another test - I have copied four files from university's
installation location (it works):
mon.start, mon.status, mon.stop and mon.which (my compilation lost these
four files), which are version grass501, to my grass53 /etc/.
   The amazing thing here is - now I can run grass53, using four mon.*
files from grass-501! So far only one function failed - I could not set
my region - but can display, zoom in and zoom out.
    When I try to set region, I will get this from my tcltkgrass window:

ld.so.1: g.region: fatal: libproj.so.0: Killed

I am not absolutely sure about this, but I think you need to have
administrative permissions (i.e. root) in order to run GRASS and to
install it.  I am not a programmer, so I don't know why, but everything
I have seen on this list the last few years indicates that root
privelages are required.

Good luck,
Ian
