Description (last modified by )
Running GRASS 7.0.1svn(64bit)-2015-02-21, Python 2.7.0, wxPython 2.8.12.0, Linux-2.6.35.14-106.fc14.x86_64-x86_64-with-fedora-14
running g.extension (from gui or from command line) gives:
--snip-- g.extension extension=r.damflood svnurl=http://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass-addons/grass7 Fetching <r.damflood> from GRASS-Addons SVN repository (be patient)... Compiling... mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/local/grass7.0.1svn- x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-21_02_2015/dist.x86_64-unknown- linux-gnu': Permission denied make: *** [/usr/local/grass7.0.1svn-x86_64-unknown-linux- gnu-21_02_2015/dist.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu] Error 1 ERROR: Compilation failed, sorry. Please check above error messages. --snip--
where g.extension appears to be wanting to write temporary files while compiling (and installing?) to a directory with root privileges, instead of at $HOME/.grass7/addons which based on manual pages should be the default local directory if "s" flag is not set.
I have had same problem with various GRASS-6 versions (where I simply stopped trying to install addons), except for GRASS-6.4.4svn-x86_64-02-11-2013, where g.extension works but with messages like:
--snip-- /usr/local/grass6.4.4svn-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu- 02_11_2013/include/Make/Grass.make:423: warning: overriding recipe for target `/home/rick/data/grassdata/ns-nad83-utm- 25m- 10m/PERMANENT/.tmp/localhost.localdomain/7565.0/r.flip/bin' --snip--
as an apparent work-around, which allowed addons to be installed into $HOME/.grass6/addons directory.
