I tried r58198 (before Martin's change) and GRASS runs, opens location, saves last open location to user settings and loads them afterwards. So, r58200 is not needed for that machine. However, I was not able to create a location in my home directory. I cannot test the other directories. The test was done in US locale, I don't know how this would behave in some non-ascii locale. I would guess that this can make difference. I've noticed that in the command line, the user name was converted to ascii. Other problem was that I got a "Select application to open .py file" dialog once (this was reported in #2015). The nice thing about it is that it does not happen on other user accounts on the same machine. https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/changeset/58200 https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/changeset/58224 https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/2015 > -- >> Glynn Clements <[email protected]> >> _______________________________________________ >> grass-dev mailing list >> [email protected] >> http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev >> > >
