Dear Nathan, <br><br>I discovered that the origin of the problem seem to be that the grass package in ubuntu is not compiled using 64bit libs and that to my understanding it's what's giving us problems. I concluded that by the nature of the error I was getting. So., I kind of went the long way... I repackaged grass for my architecture using:<br>
<br><br>sudo apt-get source grass # downloads the source tree in current dir<br>cd grass*<br>dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot # will generate all the -dev -doc packages. best to use sudo?<br>sudo dpkg -i ../*grass*deb # will install everything<br>
<br>Once you've gone through that, you can simply install addons the normel way. Which is:<br><br>download addon to /usr/lib/grass64/ raster or vector (depending on the type of addon) and make, make compile<br><br><br>
that solved the problem and created a real 64bit grass package along the way. The key seem to be that the installation of the -dev package provides all the libraries to install new addon. The problem arises when you simply install grass from the repository which is NOT 64bit!! but nonetheless functional.<br>
<br>I hope that this will help! <br><br>I'll post this solution to the wiki if nobody objects my assessment of this particular issue. So, please, comment on it if you have a deeper understanding of this than we have...<br>
<br>Cheers, <br><br>H<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Oct 23, 2009 at 11:26 PM, Currit, Nathan Allen <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:currit@txstate.edu">currit@txstate.edu</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
Hi Horacio,<br>
<br>
I saw you question posted on <org.osgeo.lists.grass-user>, but I do not see any responses. Did you find a solution to your problem? I have the same problem.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
