That's right.

Correction: you don't need to run v.build. Once you exit v.digit the
topology is built automatically. To create a polygon digitize it's
boundaries, make sure their nodes are snapped, digitize centroid within
each polygon. In GRASS, a polygon is made of boundaries and a centroid
inside.
