Most winGRASS users get frustrated to be mislead here. As it is anecdotally quite rare for Windows users to have that full build-from-source environment (most download the pre-built .exe installer) if it does remain, I would think it good to add a WARNING for Windows command line users to try it from the GUI instead. Yes, this is the minimum we can do. Or just get it done automatically: if no gcc present, switch to the Python script. This should be urgently fixed.

AFAIK the standalone wingrass-installer has an build/compiler environment inside, because it's based upon the osgeo4w-build-stack; but there are whitespace-in-path-issues related to gcc etc. normal osgeo4w-wingrass-users probably hasn't installed the build-deps by default.

Hi, 2012/9/13 António Rocha antonio.ro...@deimos.com.pt: I tried to install r.out.kml with g.extension but I got this error: which: svn: unknown command ERROR: svn client required. Please install Subversion first. (maybe it is relevant to indicate that in the help file and a few links to Subversion clients) have you tried to install extension from command line or wxGUI [1]? wxGUI uses another g.extension (Python based) which should download on Windows directly prepared binaries.

Hello Martin I tried from the command line in the GUI. Ok next time I will give a try with that extension.
