So responding to a query from a colleague I just tried g.extension in GRASS 7
that I compiled a few hours ago. Note that I'm running this from the terminal
and yes GRASS_ADDON_PATH is set properly.
$GRASS_ADDON_PATH
bash: :/Library/GRASS/7.0/Modules/bin
I start running g.extensions with just the normal default settings
g.extension extension=r.stream.order
Fetching <r.stream.order> from GRASS-Addons SVN (be patient)...
Compiling...
mkdir: /Applications/GRASS/bin: Permission denied
make: *** [/Applications/GRASS/bin] Error 1
ERROR: Compilation failed, sorry. Please check above error messages.
First of all, this is wrong. Instead of putting this into the default,
GRASS_ADDON_PATH, it is trying to create a new bin directory inside the GRASS
app.
GRASS 7.0.svn (nc_spm_08):~ > sudo g.extension extension=r.stream.order
dyld: DYLD_ environment variables being ignored because main executable
(/usr/bin/sudo) is setuid or setgid
You must be in GRASS GIS to run this program.
Now it won't let me use sudo to run g.extension.
So I try to force g.extension to use the proper directory specified by
GRASS_ADDON_PATH
GRASS 7.0.svn (nc_spm_08):~ > g.extension extension=r.stream.order
prefix=/Library/GRASS/7.0/Modules/bin
ERROR: Unable to create '/Library/GRASS/7.0/Modules/bin/bin': [Errno 13]
Permission denied: '/Library/GRASS/7.0/Modules/bin/bin'
Again permission denied.
sudo g.extension extension=r.stream.order prefix=/Library/GRASS/7.0/Modules/bin
dyld: DYLD_ environment variables being ignored because main executable
(/usr/bin/sudo) is setuid or setgid
You must be in GRASS GIS to run this program.
And again, I get a bogus message when I use sudo to override the permissions
issue.
So there is no way this can work AFAICT. Maybe it work in GRASS 6.
