Hi all, I know this is quite a recurrent topic, but I couldn't find any solution on my own.
Problem is I need to install grass addon r.viewshed. I run Grass 6.4.3svn from http://ppa.launchpad.net/grass/grass-stable/ubuntu on ubuntu 11.10 (virtualised on a macbook, but that shouldn't be an issue). And I've installed grass-dev 1) I've tried it with: g.extension r.viewshed and the result was a huge output (Ill post the whole thing if required) that ended with: sh: Can't open /usr/lib/grass64/tools/g.html2man make[2]: *** [/home/matt/Desktop/grass/prato/visibilita/.tmp/matt-ubuntu/18805.0/dist.i686/man/man1/r.viewshed.1] Error 127 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/matt/Desktop/grass/prato/visibilita/.tmp/matt-ubuntu/18805.0/r.viewshed' make[1]: *** [mancmd] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/matt/Desktop/grass/prato/visibilita/.tmp/matt-ubuntu/18805.0/r.viewshed' make: *** [default] Error 2 ERROR: Compilation failed, sorry. Please check above error messages. 2) Then I tried with the GUi (Settings>>Install extension from add-ons) which I believe calls g.extension.py and a an error pop-up shows up: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/grass64/etc/gui/scripts/g.extension.py", line 802, in <module> sys.exit(main()) File "/usr/lib/grass64/etc/gui/scripts/g.extension.py", line 767, in main list_available_extensions() File "/usr/lib/grass64/etc/gui/scripts/g.extension.py", line 179, in list_available_extensions url = "http://grass.osgeo.org/addons/grass%s/modules.xml" % grass.version()['version'].split('.')[0] KeyError: 'version' 3) Then I tried the two procedures described http://osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/i-pr-gt-g-extension-and-compiling-error-on-ubuntu-11-10-64-bit-td4352067.html here if I go into /grass64/bin/r.viewshed/ folder and I type make MODULE_TOPDIR=/usr/lib/grass64 I get: Makefile:8: /usr/local/grass64/include/Make/Module.make: No such file or directory make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/local/grass64/include/Make/Module.make'. Stop. If I go for "sudo make" I get: ../..//include/Make/Module.make:25: warning: overriding commands for target `install' ../..//include/Make/Rules.make:90: warning: ignoring old commands for target `install' Makefile:50: warning: overriding commands for target `/usr/lib/grass64/bin/r.viewshed' ../..//include/Make/Module.make:15: warning: ignoring old commands for target `/usr/lib/grass64/bin/r.viewshed' g++ -L/usr/lib/grass64/lib -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -Wl,--export-dynamic -Wl,-rpath-link,/usr/lib/grass64/lib -o /usr/lib/grass64/bin/r.viewshed OBJ.i686-pc-linux-gnu/main.o OBJ.i686-pc-linux-gnu/distribute.o OBJ.i686-pc-linux-gnu/eventlist.o OBJ.i686-pc-linux-gnu/grid.o OBJ.i686-pc-linux-gnu/grass.o OBJ.i686-pc-linux-gnu/viewshed.o OBJ.i686-pc-linux-gnu/rbbst.o OBJ.i686-pc-linux-gnu/statusstructure.o OBJ.i686-pc-linux-gnu/visibility.o -lgrass_gis.6.4.3svn -lgrass_datetime.6.4.3svn -lz -lgrass_iostream.6.4.3svn /usr/bin/ld: cannot open output file /usr/lib/grass64/bin/r.viewshed: Is a directory collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [/usr/lib/grass64/bin/r.viewshed] Error 1 SO right now I'm out of solutions, could somenone guide me through this f***** addons installation?
