Hi Elvis,
Guess you didn't want to try my suggestions for compiling.
Anyway, as Glynn indicates, the error you have is most likely related
to GDAL being an incorrect version or not installed correctly.
Otherwise, it is due to something else wrong with your region. As he
suggests, g.region -p might give you some guidance.
The correct way to start either gui from the command line now is to
use g.gui tcltk& or g.gui wxpython&
Note that you need to use the ampersand to prevent either gui from
running modally (i.e., locking you out of the terminal command line
until you quit the GUI). I guess you can still access the old TclTk
startup script, which includes an ampersand to prevent modal launch of
the GUI.
One guess as to why you are getting a TclTk GUI even when you compile
without it. You probably compiled with it, which put all the TclTk
scripts into your binary grass.app file. If you subsequently compile
without it and do a "make install", it will put in new files and
overwrite old files with new, but will not get rid of files not
overwritten. That is, you probably still have the TclTk scripts in
your grass.app folder. They are simply text files that are interpreted
as they are run. So you aren't actually compiling them, but simply
copying them from the source tree into your binary grass.app folder.
So they are still there, even after you have compiled without them
unless you delete your grass.app and have a new one built from scratch.

Hi William,
I just downloaded the latest version of
grass-6.4.x from cvs and tried compiling it, first with X11 and the
tcltk options, and the second time without tcltk. The funny thing is
even though I disable tcltk from the configure command the second
time, the tcltk application still kept showing.
Here is the first configure command
./configure --with-cxx --prefix=/Applications/GRASS --enable-macosx-
app --with-x --with-opengl=x11 --without-readline --x-includes=/usr/
X11/include --x-libraries=/usr/X11/lib --with-opengl-includes=/usr/
X11/
include --with-opengl-libs=/usr/X11/lib
Here is the second configure command without tcltk
./configure --with-cxx --prefix=/Applications/GRASS --enable-macosx-
app --with-x --with-opengl=x11 --without-readline --x-includes=/usr/
X11/include --x-libraries=/usr/X11/lib --with-opengl-includes=/usr/
X11/
include --with-opengl-libs=/usr/X11/lib --without-tcltk
What could be causing it?
Best regards,
Elvis Dowson
