OK it took me some time but I think I figured things out. The problem was
the weird topology of the input vector file (created outside grass by
another person). One record in the table would correspond to more than one
polygons, and this somehow created problems. I solved exporting the vector
to geopackage and then import again and I got a much longer table
associated, now one record per polygon.
Thanks
