You mean that GRASS (which version) did not work or that g.extension within it failed? Note that there is a known bug for g.extension usage in the Makefile system due to a wrong path which also manifests in OpenSuse. > I've almost given up, and now I am running grass on > poseidon linux (ubuntu base) which came preinstalled with Grass 6.4ORC5.

Which GRASS version number? Do I need to install from source? It would be needed to fix for many platforms this bug: http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/620 In general, please use 6.4.0 (or 6.4.svn). > If I can't get g.extension to work properly are there any workarounds such > as running it as bash script? It needs to be compiled. You can manually fix the path in include/Make/Platform.make (see above ticket), then g.extension should work. Yesterday I made an attempt to also fix the system wide installation (in GRASS 6.5) which might be backported.
