[GRASS-user] Re: Installing r.area

[LeeDaniel]

Hi ya'll!

Alright, r.area still isn't functional, but I think we might be a few steps
closer to the goal... I got the new and improved g.extension script from
http://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass/branches/releasebranch_6_4/scripts/g.extension/
and popped it as an executable into $GISBASE/scripts/, then changed the
rights so that I can use it. I tried it again. Bad news is, it still didn't
work. The good news is, my new error message is different from my last one!

It's a lot shorter than the old error message because it didn't make
directories, apparently.

However, maybe I'm just really missing the point here, because the
directories are still there from the last time I tried to build it.

So much to that. As far as the other stuff is concerned:

Not sure. My distro is OpenSUSE 11.3 and I have the grass-devel package
installed. I used the packet manager to get it. I have found a directory
/opt/grass/include/ - could that be it?

Yep.

Thanks so much for the help!
Best,
