Hi Moritz,
Thank you for your help and advice. I am running 7.8.1RC1 as it turns
out, installed yesterday.
I was overly alarmed by the error messages (they do say "Critical Error"
after all) and along with
getting two blank windows, I just assumed that something serious was wrong.
I do think that it would make sense for somebody to fix whatever it is
that yields the messages like:
(wxgui.py:419): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 21:21:42.695:
gtk_box_gadget_distribute: assertion 'size >= 0' failed in GtkSpinButton
In fact I note that the window I used to start GRASS is filled with
messages of this sort.
Likely that the Gtk libraries have become extra fussy or something, but
it would be nice to clean this
up as it will alarm new users (or any sensible user I would think).
My blank windows do have buttons and when I ignore the error messages
that continue to spew out, I do get
results! I had expected that I would immediately see some kind of map,
not just a blank canvas to start, so on
with the learning curve I go.

Welcome to the community !
GRASS GIS does have a bit of a learning curve, but once you get past
the first barriers you won't be able to live without it anymore ! ;-)
I installed grass from RPM on my Fedora 30 linux system. First I
installed 7.6 from official fedora packages, then I erased that and
installed 7.8 from packages on the Fedora "copr" repository.
Another question: when exactly did you install these packages. 7.8.1
just arrived in the repository 3 days ago, IISC, so if you still have
7.8.0 you might want to start by installing the latest version.
Moritz
