[GRASS-user] child process exited abnormally

[Martin Wegmann]

Hello,

I did a cvs update just a few minutes ago and received this error:

Welcome to GRASS 6.3.cvs (2007)
GRASS homepage:                          http://grass.itc.it/
This version running thru:               Bash Shell (/bin/bash)
Help is available with the command:      g.manual -i
See the licence terms with:              g.version -c
If required, restart the graphical user interface with: gis.m
When ready to quit enter:                exit
child process exited abnormally
GRASS 6.3.cvs (spearfish60):~ > gis.m
GRASS 6.3.cvs (spearfish60):~ > child process exited abnormally


I found various threats mainly with regard to cygwin but no solution.

Tested it using debian stable and unstable. 

any ideas how to solve that?


BTW and using the debian rep. grass62 prompted this error:
 grass62
/usr/lib/grass/etc/Init.sh: line 237: syntax error near unexpected token `fi'
/usr/lib/grass/etc/Init.sh: line 237: ` fi'

grass
/usr/lib/grass/etc/Init.sh: line 237: syntax error near unexpected token `fi'
/usr/lib/grass/etc/Init.sh: line 237: ` fi'

tomorrow I will delete all GRASS related files in / and do again: make 
distclean, /configure, make etc. and try again.

TIA, Martin
