Problem emerging GRASS GIS

I've a problem during the ./configure checkup when emerging grass GIS.
I've the folowing message :

checking whether to use Motif... yes
checking for location of Motif includes...
checking for Xm/Xm.h... no
configure: error: *** Unable to locate Motif includes.

!!! ERROR: app-misc/grass-5.0.2 failed.

OpenMotif is still installed, and if I unmerge it and try to reinstall GRASS, emerge know it as a grass dependency and install it automatically, but grass still won't compile.

Any clue?

I'm getting the exact same error message.

Code: Select all

checking for location of FFTW includes... 
checking for fftw.h... no
checking for dfftw.h... no
configure: error: *** Unable to locate FFTW includes.

!!! ERROR: app-misc/grass-5.0.2 failed.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 92, Exitcode 1
!!! ./configure failed

I need this prog anyone have any ideas?

I just tried to re-emerge FFTW and then grass again but no dice. Anyone else get this fixed?

This address has a description of a possible fix. I'll test it later but if someone else wants to try and post their results that would be great.

I have finally overcome the fftw.h bug. The problem is that fftw released a new, non-backwards compatible version (3.xx) and Grass depends on the older version (2.1.5). To solve this problem just download the older version from the FFTW homepage and install it. Then try Grass again. I'm not positive this will work but Grass is compiling atm so it looks good.

Thanks! You solved my problem. Grass is compiling fine now.

No need to download anything from the fftw website, just emerge the older version

# emerge =fftw-2.1.5

Later.........

my grass ./configure (of emerge) cannot find the LAPACK library.
(similar error like above)

If I locate the LAPACK library it is there:

Code: Select all

locate lapack
/usr/lib/liblapack.a
/usr/include/clapack.h

can anyone help ?

ok I solved it,
it's a little bit strange:
I deleted LAPACK:

Code: Select all

emerge -C lapack

and then I emerged grass:

Code: Select all

emerge grass

it re-emerged LAPACK and grass itself, then it worked

Hey,

'emerge grass' installed without complaints
grass5 seems to work OK
can't get r.in.gdal to work - manually built the gdal-1.2.1 but causes r.in.gdal to seg fault. tried to build gdal-1.1.5 without success.

any ideas?

How do you fix the problem with blas?

Me too. Except that BLAS is already installed, according to "emerge -s blas". I tried the emerge again and saw that the BLAS compilation failed due to g77 being missing, but the emerge *still* went ahead and supposedly installed BLAS. I guess that's a fault...

Set your use flags to include "g77", then re-emerge gcc. That builds g77 for you. Then "emerge blas", *then* try "emerge grass".

For me, it now bitches about the LAPACK library. Same symptoms as for BLAS - already installed, but not found. Probably due to being installed while g77 was missing, even though the compilation failed. Re-emerge lapack...

Lather, rinse, repeat...

Thanks. After including g77 and several emerges it compiled.

Sorry for the kick of this very old topic.

I had just the same problem with that Motif-story. I have installed it by emerge it on the next way:

Code: Select all

USE="-motif" emerge grass

And it just work. Maybe I can help someone with it.
