[GRASS-user] status of launchpad Ubuntu builds [WAS: Re: how to install GRASS binaries of weekly snapshot on ubuntu12.04?]

Since all code is well imported from SVN to LP:
https://code.launchpad.net/~grass/grass/releasebranch_6_4

It is /*only/* an issue of updating the debian files:

https://code.launchpad.net/~grass/grass/grass64_release_debian

All members of the GRASS GIS team can do this:
https://launchpad.net/~grass/+members

once this is automatically taken up by the recipe:
https://code.launchpad.net/~grass/+recipe/grass64

Last, I deactivated it as it was continuously failing (see below).

Since 2 years I am not working with GRASS on day2day basis.

Thus, there's no time and current need.

I would be grateful if someone could assist and co-maintain the GRASS
project on Launchpad.

I am willing to assist in setting everything up.

Regards.

In case of errors please change into the directory with error and run
'make'.
If you get multiple errors, you need to deal with them in the order they
appear in the error log. If you get an error building a library, you will
also get errors from anything which uses the library.
