* version: 6.4.0 RCs => svn-trunk * milestone: 6.5.0 => 7.0.0 Comment: Replying to [ticket:684 mlennert]: > g.extension proposes the following default URL for downloading AddOns: > > https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass-addons/grass7 > > However, most AddOns are in > > https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass-addons/ > > Shouldn't the default rather point there ? I think that g.extension from trunk should point to GRASS 7 compatibile modules. > This then also raises the question whether having a separate grass7 directory in that tree is really useful. Shouldn't AddOns just declare in README's that they are only usable in a specific grass version ? Another options would to provide patch for GRASS7. E.g. g.extension could check if dictionary contains {{{grass7.diff}}} and patch the source code before compilation.
