[GRASS-user] Configuring GRASS source code for compilation under Ubuntu 7.10 -- CFLAGS and LDFLAGS parameters no more necessary (?)

[Nikos Alexandris]

Yes correct.

I did recently a new clean install of almost everything on my machine.
The same with GRASS and I forgot to add the proper rights in
GRASS-source folder and files.

So I was getting an error and I thought trying with sudo will do the
work... which is of course wrong.

Thank you!
