Hi, Thanks for your responses.
I followed till this step http://grass.osgeo.org/wiki/Compile_and_Install_Ubuntu#GRASS_GIS (about the ./configure command not working earlier, this time it worked as I didn't use the ubuntu repository to install rest of the prerequisites, but downloaded manually and moved to the source code directory and then configured it accordingly). In the step of Grass_GIS, ./configure worked (but it says error: unabale to locate TIFF includes, rest worked). the step - compile & install make -j2 && sudo make install && sudo ldconfig says "include/Make/Vars.make:1: include/Make/Platform.make: No such file or directory make: *** No rule to make target `include/Make/Platform.make'. Stop." and here I am stuck. - Manish On 31 October 2012 22:44, Nikos Alexandris <[email protected]> wrote: > > [forgot to cc to the list] > > Manish Gautam: > > > > I am finding it difficult to install Grass 7 on my pc.
