Use the GDAL-GRASS plug-in. Then, you only need to re-compile the plug-in whenever you update GRASS. Alternatively: Build and install GRASS 6.3. Build GDAL --with-grass, and install it. Use this for QGIS, GDAL utilities, etc. Build GDAL again --without-grass and install it somewhere it won't normally be found (i.e. not in /usr or /usr/local). If you want to use an updated version of GRASS, build it against the GRASS-less GDAL and run it in place. Even without this specific issue, building GDAL --with-grass is problematic as GRASS depends quite heavily upon GDAL, so having a version of GDAL which depends upon GRASS creates a circular dependency. -- Glynn Clements <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ grass-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user
