g.mlist warnings for layers found in other mapsets

[pvanbosgeo]

g.mlist produces warnings for all layers in other mapsets with names matching the search pattern, even if mapset is set (which should force it to search in that mapset only)

This is on GRASS 7.1.svn (2014), in Linux (Ubuntu 13.10)

Not sure what the issue is... here an example:

grass71 -c ~/grassdata/nc_spm_08_grass7/user2

GRASS 7.1.svn (nc_spm_08_grass7):~ > g.mlist rast
raster map(s) available in mapset <PERMANENT>:
aspect
basin_50K
...
elev_state_500m
elevation
elevation_shade
...
zipcodes
zipcodes_dbl
GRASS 7.1.svn (nc_spm_08_grass7):~ >

# now copy over "elevation" map as found in search path to
# current mapset:
GRASS 7.1.svn (nc_spm_08_grass7):~ > g.copy rast=elevation,elevation
Copy raster <elevation@PERMANENT> to current mapset as <elevation>

# list again:
GRASS 7.1.svn (nc_spm_08_grass7):~ > g.mlist rast
raster map(s) available in mapset <user2>:
WARNING: 'cell/elevation' was found in more mapsets (also found in
         <PERMANENT>)

GRASS 7.1.svn (nc_spm_08_grass7):~ >

GRASS 7.1.svn (nc_spm_08_grass7):~ > g.mapsets -l
Available mapsets:

GRASS 7.1.svn (nc_spm_08_grass7):~ > g.mapsets -p 
Accessible mapsets:
user2 PERMANENT

So it tells the user that the map "elevation" exists multiple times in the search path ("Accessible mapsets")... Guess that's how it should be.

Copied from ​grass-dev:

$ g.mlist type=rast pattern=fireprob_rf1 mapset=Ethiopia
fireprob_rf1raster map(s) available in mapset <Ethiopia>:
WARNING: 'cell/fireprob_rf1' was found in more mapsets (also found in <Ethiopiabackup>)
WARNING: Using <fireprob_rf1 at Ethiopia>

$ g.mlist type=rast pattern=fireprob_rf1
fireprob_rf1
fireprob_rf1@Ethiopiabackup

WARNING: 'cell/fireprob_rf1' was found in more mapsets (also found in <Ethiopiabackup>)

raster map(s) available in mapset <Ethiopiabackup>:
WARNING: 'cell/fireprob_rf1' was found in more mapsets (also found in <Ethiopiabackup>)
WARNING: Using <fireprob_rf1@Ethiopia>

It also seems that the warning is reported multiple times and that the overall formatting is strange (e.g. the line raster map(s) available in mapset <Ethiopia>: followed by WARNING: ...).

In relbranch7 I have the same issue with d.rast.leg:

GRASS 7.0.0svn (eu_laea):~ > d.rast.leg diff
WARNING: 'cell/diff' was found in more mapsets (also found in
         <modis_lst_europe>)
WARNING: Using <diff@modis_lst_reconstructed_europe_daily>
WARNING: 'cellhd/diff' was found in more mapsets (also found in
         <modis_lst_europe>)
WARNING: Using <diff@modis_lst_reconstructed_europe_daily>
WARNING: 'cellhd/diff' was found in more mapsets (also found in
         <modis_lst_europe>)
...
(many more)

It seems to be a more generic issue.

No answer, assuming that the problem is solved. Closing.
