[GRASS-user] winGRASS tester needed ... to fix upcoming releases :-) .... nobody out there willing to test?

[Maria Cecilia Zalazar]

Dear Grass community, I´m using wingrass 7.8.5 (daily, mainly to process
and analyze raster DEM). No new issues to report in my daily task.  But if
I try to install i.fusion.hpf, as Helmut suggested, I obtain the following
error message. I hope it is useful. Best regards

Downloading precompiled GRASS Addons <i.fusion.hpf>...
Fetching <i.fusion.hpf> from <
http://wingrass.fsv.cvut.cz/grass78/x86_64/addons/grass-7.8.5/i.fusion.hpf.zip>
(be patient)...
