[GRASS-user] Installing addons in GRASS 8.2.0 - Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS

[Edouard Choinière]

Hi!

This problem seems to have been fixed proactively 10 months ago in https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/2895 <https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/2895>  and released in Grass 8.3.0 on June 24. 2023.

GitHub announced last year that it was sunsetting SVN protocol access, and has been sunset on January 8 2024. So it’s expected that the installation using an now in existing url won’t work.

Apart from using 8.3.0+, like from https://launchpad.net/~ubuntugis/+archive/ubuntu/ubuntugis-unstable, I don’t remember the specific workaround to specify an alternative url that won’t use the SVN code path for code stored in GitHub.
Can someone step in?

Hi,

I want to install the r.clip addon in Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS. I am using GRASS 8.2.0, installed from https://launchpad.net/%7Eubuntugis/+archive/ubuntu/ppa. I also installed svn and grass-dev. When I use g.extension I get the following error:


g.extension r.clip
/usr/lib/grass82/scripts/g.extension:167: DeprecationWarning: The distutils package is deprecated and slated for removal in Python 3.12. Use setuptools or check PEP 632 for potential alternatives
  from distutils.dir_util import copy_tree
Fetching <r.clip> from GRASS GIS Addons repository (be patient)...
svn: E170013: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'https://github.com/OSGeo/grass-addons/branches/grass8/src/raster/r.clip'
svn: E160013: '/OSGeo/grass-addons/branches/grass8/src/raster/r.clip' path not found
ERROR: GRASS Addons <r.clip> not found

Do you know what the problem is?
