Hi Markus, checking I have python3 3.6.9 and wx-config 3.0.4; not sure if the
problem occurs in these versions as well.

No it doesn't.

And a fix has already been submitted by Vaclav :)

So, my problem is unrelated to your's.

--text always started in the last used location/mapset. No Startup Window
presented. No change there, but...

--gui now behaves the same since #767 [1]. It starts in the last used
mapset. This pairs well with another change which opens the GUI in the Data
tab where you can change the mapset if needed. The Data tab has all
features of the Startup Window and much much more. There is more to be said
about this, but I will just add that we are now evaluating how well it
works.

--gtext: we are now seeking feedback about how this should behave or if it
is even needed.

If there would be anything wrong or the last used mapset is simply already
in use, you should actually get the Startup Window with both --gui and
--gtext at this point.

I hope this clarifies it and I'm now curious about what you think. You can
quickly get some info from Linda's slides [2] and some more details from
development wiki pages [3, 4].

[GRASS-user] New Grass start menu

2020-11-24 Thread Eric Patton
Hi, 

I am using the 2020-11-24 weekly generic Linux build, and I can't seem to launch
the start menu using the [--text|--gtext|--gui] flags. When I invoke grass79, I
am taken immediately into the last-used Location and Mapset, without ever seeing
any start menu. I checked my grassrc, and there doesn't seem to be anything
offending in there. I'm running it on Linux Mint 19.3.

Thanks for any pointers,

In case you use Python 3.9 you might be hit by this XML issue
https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/issues/1119

(just have that here as well).
