v.out.ogr exports only attribute data in CSV format

[marisn]

Exporting vector data with v.out.ogr to CSV file will export only attribute data without coordinate information. Coordinate information also should be included in exported CSV file.

Spearfish example: v.out.ogr input=bugsites@PERMANENT type=point dsn=/tmp/bugsites olayer=bugsites layer=1 format=CSV

GRASS-6.3.0RC4
GDAL 1.4.2.0
Gentoo ~x86

I don't think that this is a GRASS problem but moreover an OGR problem:

# list available data
ogrinfo -so /home/neteler/grassdata/spearfish60/PERMANENT/vector/bugsites/head
Warning 1: GRASS warning: GISBASE enviroment variable was not set, using:

#generate CSV file:
ogr2ogr -f CSV bugsites.csv /home/neteler/grassdata/spearfish60/PERMANENT/vector/bugsites/head
