Hi there, Alright, I think I figured out the problem: I've got a 32-bit system and not a 64-bit one. My mistake.
Now I'm back to the old problem, though. I really need r.area because I'm working with python and don't want to pipe awk commands through r.stats in order to find out the area of my homogeneous areas and then have to eliminate them with r.reclass. When I try to install r.area with g.extension (put GRASS 6.4 back on my machine) I get the following problem in GRASS: g.extension extension=r.area svnurl=https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass-addons/ prefix=${GISBASE} Fetching <r.area> from GRASS-Addons SVN (be patient)... A r.area/main.c A r.area/description.html A r.area/Makefile Checked out revision 43042. mkdir -p /usr/src/packages/BUILD/grass-6.4.0RC6/bin.i686-pc-linux-gnu mkdir -p /usr/src/packages/BUILD/grass-6.4.0RC6/dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/include/grass mkdir -p /usr/src/packages/BUILD/grass-6.4.0RC6/dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/lib mkdir -p /usr/src/packages/BUILD/grass-6.4.0RC6/dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin mkdir -p /usr/src/packages/BUILD/grass-6.4.0RC6/dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/etc mkdir -p /usr/src/packages/BUILD/grass-6.4.0RC6/dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/driver Compiling r.area... main.c:19:23: fatal error: grass/gis.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. make: *** [OBJ.i686-pc-linux-gnu/main.o] Error 1 ERROR: Compilation failed, sorry.
