Anyone know why my Debian experimental install of GRASS7 fails? TIA Zenaan ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Zenaan Harkness <z...@freedbms.net> Date: Sun, 28 Jun 2015 01:42:59 +0000 Subject: installing GRASS7 To: grass-u...@lists.osgeo.org
I'm on Debian Jessie (stable), have not used GIS software before and want to learn GRASS so it makes sense to me to start with GRASS7 rather than 6.4 (which is available in Debian). I tried without success the instructions to install GRASS7 from experimental here: https://wiki.debian.org/DebianExperimental I added this to sources.list: deb http://ftp.au.debian.org/debian/ experimental main contrib Then: apt-get update apt-get -t experimental install grass-core grass-gui First it failed, so I installed grass from stable and now I can run this: $ grass --version GRASS GIS 6.4.4 cat: /usr/lib/grass64/etc/license: No such file or directory So firstly, can someone tell me what that last line of output is (it looks very odd to coming out of a Debian package)? Now when I try: apt-get -t experimental install grass-core grass-gui I get the following output: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done grass-core is already the newest version. grass-gui is already the newest version. 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 6 not upgraded. Can anyone help here - I'd really like to start on GRASS7, if possible (on Debian stable - would that normally be a "backport" or an "update"?). Thanks heaps, Zenaan _______________________________________________ D-community-offtopic mailing list D-community-offtopic@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/d-community-offtopic
