[GRASS-user] [GRASS-dev] GRASS and Mac OS X El Capitan

But it was never clear what was and was not working. We have this working fine in Yosemite. So far, you are the only ones to report a problem with Yosemite. The problem we are reporting now is that it was running on Yosemite and not running on El Capitan. Maybe that is the same thing, but maybe not. That said, I plan on a recompile, but have been stuck on the laslib problem. I hope to have time to get that compiled on Thursday. I haven’t had much input so it has been a lot of trial and error. Once it is working with current gdal, I can recompile new binaries.

This is a binary I created and posted to my web site not too long ago. It worked fine before upgrading and works fine on people’s machines that have not upgraded. So this worries me.

I informed you couple of weeks ago when you posted them that they are not working on my and Helena's Mac with the exact same problem (we have Yosemite). As I said before couple of times and as Markus said now, this error suggests that fresh recompilation could help.

BTW I fixed import order couple of weeks ago, so this shouldn't happen again.



I’m hoping soon to have time to complete the complicated effort to recompile laslib so I can make new binaries before I think about upgrading to the new OS X. But I will be compiling them on the penultimate version of the OS (prior to El Capitan, released a few days ago).

 We are able to compile GRASS on Mac, although we haven't tried to compile liblas.
