I understand that everything that needs GRASS has to be recompiled if this version changes so much to change its interface (QGis-GRASS plugin, GRASS-GDAL plugin, etc.). But I would like to know why the new develbrunch_6 revision needs the GDAL itself to be recompiled. I can understand it if GRASS would need a newer version of GDAL... is this the case? Just to note: everything compiled ok from me until the trunk evision of a week ago.
It's just curiosity. Tomorrow I will start compiling... 2008/8/13 William Kyngesburye <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > On Aug 13, 2008, at 12:30 PM, G. Allegri wrote: > >> Thanks for the tips.
