[GRASS-user] error in opening google earth kml files in grass64 on ubuntu

[Maris Nartiss]

Hello,
can You test if OGR reads Shapefile correctly?

ogrinfo -ro polygons2.shp polygons

It should print out all features and their attributes in Shapefile. If
process ends well - it's a GRASS problem, otherwise it's an GDAL/OGR
problem.

Maris.
