@devs: any way we can get rid of that noise? it gets hard to see the signal.

it seems that $GISBASE/tools/g.html2man is seeing a directory,
not the script. Can you 'make distclean' AND remove any old grass
installation and try again? (the dir may be present left over from an
old install which used to use it)


I just tried a fresh build of 6.4.svn using the debiangis packaging
rules* on an ubuntu 11.10 VM, and the g.extension command there worked ok.

[*] see instructions in the source code debian/ dir.
