[GRASS-user] Problems to install latest 7.0 and 7.1 Linux binary snapshots

[Tomáš Brunclík]

Hello,
I just downloaded latest GRASS 7.0 and 7.1 binary snapshots for Linux 
and either version fails to install properly. The installation script 
proceeds to the message, that GRASS was installed, but along the way 
there are errors with missing files and GRASS could not be run after 
that. The missing files are:

/usr/local/grass7.1.svn-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-09_08_2014/etc/nad/src/*.lla
/usr/local/grass7.1.svn-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-09_08_2014/etc/nad/src

and indeed, I do not see a folder ./etc/nad in the downloaded archive 
nor in resulting installed GRASS directory (do not know if it is 
supposed to be generated or something).
When trying to start GRASS, the startup script complains, that file

/usr/local/grass7.1.svn-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-09_08_2014/gui/wxpython/gis_set.py

is missing. And again, in either the .tar.gz archive or the installed 
GRASS directory, there is no 'gui' subdirectory at all.
Seems like there is something missing in the binary snapshot, or there 
is a quirk in the installation script. I'm on Linux Mint Debian Edition 
(basically Debian testing). See the full log of the installation attempt 
and attempt to run GRASS from terminal messages below. It is the same 
for the 7.0 snapshot.
Regards,
Tomas Brunclik
