Actually I do not mind any more what version I would like to get working.  
I would have preferred the 2.8-LTR branch with no-matter-what GRASS  
version.

I just would like to be able to finish my project, and there is  
unfortunately no alternative to the GRASS algos in my model.

Mhm, reverting to 2.6 ... Lets see if this still possible at all ...

Will give it a try. Download will take another 1.5 hours ...

So does that mean that even your do not have a working GRASS in a recent  
QGIS by "normal" means but the osgeo VM?
