> Thanks to Vaclav (https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/grass-
dev/2018-November/090480.html) I now understand that the mkdir part in
lib/python/script/core.py fails.
I disagree, the mapset should have been created by g.proj:

proposed here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/273227
The patch does not create a valid mapset, it creates only an empty
directory: the files DEFAULT_WIND, PROJ_EPSG, PROJ_INFO, PROJ_UNITS, WIND
are missing.
You need to find out why g.proj called by create_location() has not
created the location with mapset PERMANENT
(/actinia_core/grassdb/latlongtest/PERMANENT)
