[GRASS-user] Missing some tools: v.db.addcol, for example

[Roger André]

Hi GRASS list,

I've noticed that a few tools in my GRASS 6.4 appear to be missing, or
at least missing from my path.  Here is an example:


GRASS 6.4.0RC4 (colombia):~/> v.db.addcol countries_simpl col="diss int(1)"
bash: v.db.addcol: command not found

And yet, when I look for the tool under my install dir, it appears to be there:

$ find /usr/local/grass-6.4.0RC4 -name "v.db.addcol*"
/usr/local/grass-6.4.0RC4/docs/html/v.db.addcol.html
/usr/local/grass-6.4.0RC4/locale/scriptstrings/v.db.addcol_to_translate.c
/usr/local/grass-6.4.0RC4/man/man1/v.db.addcol.1
/usr/local/grass-6.4.0RC4/scripts/v.db.addcol
/usr/local/grass-6.4.0RC4/scripts/v.db.addcol/v.db.addcol
/usr/local/grass-6.4.0RC4/scripts/v.db.addcol/v.db.addcol.tmp.html
/usr/local/grass-6.4.0RC4/dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/docs/html/v.db.addcol.html
/usr/local/grass-6.4.0RC4/dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/man/man1/v.db.addcol.1
/usr/local/grass-6.4.0RC4/dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/scripts/v.db.addcol

It's only a problem with certain tools.  I have the same problem with
d.redraw for example, but not with d.erase.  The difference seems to
be that d.erase is not under the scripts dir, but is instead in bin
(all under GRASS of course).

Is there some way I can add the scripts tools back in, and is this the
sign that I just screwed up the install somehow?

Thanks,

Roger
