Fwd: [GRASS-user] PG Database Connection in GRASS 6.3

[David Kindem]

At Lorenzo's suggestion, I updated by PostgreSQL to the current  
version.  This added the missing library (libpq.5.dylib) to /usr/ 
local/pgsql/lib.

Database connection from the command line now works properly.   
However, from the GUI (tcltk) I still get the error:

> Bad file descriptor: dup r
> dbmi: Protocol error

> Unable to start driver <pg>


Perhaps a GUI issue?
