some insights regarding %HOME% in winGRASS: https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/grass-dev/2016-November/083159.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [GRASS-dev] does GRASS need HOME to be defined? > >> anyone more insight, if %HOME% is needed in winGRASS? > > > >Done by Glynn in: > >https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/changeset/37873 > > does GRASS need HOME to be defined? > > any hints? It's used G__home() on Unix (and as a fallback on Windows) and it's used for G_rc_path() on Windows (for some reason, the Unix version uses getpwuid(), which is probably incorrect in this context). It may also be used implicitly by library functions or external programs looking for configuration files. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/grass-stats/2016-November/001708.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OK, so the extension would be to look in %HOME%/Documents to see if there is %HOME%/Documents/R, and if so do what? If R_LIBS_USER is set, do nothing, if not, set R_USER, or guess which win-library is the relevant one and set R_LIBS_USER? Even if this is redundant for non-R users? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- so it's still to discuss what would be the best option to overcome this issue. ----- best regards Helmut -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/GRASS-can-t-find-R-packages-from-personal-library-on-Windows-tp5295771p5297179.html Sent from the Grass - Stats mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ grass-stats mailing list grass-stats@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-stats
