[GRASS-user] GRASS 8 generic weekly for Linux -- startup error.

[n_larsson at yahoo.com]

 Hi Isaac,

This looks like something caused by ctypesgen failing to find the grass_raster.8.0 library. Not related to changes in dependencies. (Check “./configure —- help” for available configs). Please report an issue at https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/issues, for following up on this.

Best, Nicklas

 Hi all, just trying to get GRASS 8 running on my laptop (Pop!_OS 20.10) and trying the generic 64-bit Linux binaries. Made sure all dependencies are installed, etc., (done this many times before), but getting a new error upon start up. Splash screen goes, and then I get the following before the new GUI can load:Launching <wxpython> GUI in the background, please wait...
To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo <command>".
See "man sudo_root" for details.

Goodbye from GRASS GIS

Seems like something to do with the GRASS 8 raster library? Is there a new dependency not listed in https://grass.osgeo.org/grass80/binary/linux/snapshot/REQUIREMENTS.html ? Any thoughts? FYI, I was able to run the two release candidates on the same OS (but different computer).
