that file comes from the grass-doc package. is it installed? (search for which package has the file: `dpkg -S grass_logo.png` if installed; `apt-file search grass_logo.png` if not installed) > What would be the best method to install? Is there a manual > way of installing an extension? at least three other ways, the first is try g.extension[.sh] from the grass command line (it's a separate module from the python version), the second is to just make a ~/bin directory and put the script in there (may need to log out and back it to get ~/bin in your path automatically). if you have all your personal scripts in a directory somewhere, you can set and export the GRASS_ADDON_PATH to that pathname before starting grass and the script will then be in the GRASS path. and finally, if you have the full grass source code installed you can run `make MODULE_TOPDIR=/path/to/src/topdir`. > My system: > 6.4.3-1~svn548 (mint 13/ubuntu precise) ... > I get the following error on attempting to install grass-dev > into the system using the package manager: > > E: /var/cache/apt/archives/grass- > dev_6.4.3-1~svn54876~precise1_i386.deb: > trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/grass64/include/Make/Rules.make', > which is also in package grass 6.4.3-1~svn54876~precise1 where did you get the packages from? UbuntuGIS? the solution when working with after-market packages and having trouble is to completely remove/purge the old from the system before trying to install another version. (it's a moving target, apparently the previous package was not sync'd to the new build rules from DebianGIS, but the new one was, and the packager has not put a Conflicts: in the debian/control file) Hamish _______________________________________________ grass-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user
