It is easiest to obtain a prepackaged version of these libraries (e.g., .rpm; .deb) for your particular operating system and run the corresponding package installation (e.g., rpm -Uhv packagename.rpm; apt-get) in a terminal window. Take care to also install the development packages of these libraries (...-devel packages). If there is no prepackage version, then you will have to download the source code (see links above, source code packages usually ends in .tar.gz or .zip) and compile it (you must have a C compiler installed as part of your operating system).

===== | ===== Enterprise Linux ===== | ||
Enterprise Linux (EL) and derivatives (that is, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS and Scientific Linux) is a popular and robust platform for servers and computing-heavy workstations, and is therefore a good fit for GIS specific requirements. | |||
See: http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Enterprise_Linux_GIS | |||
===== Scientific Linux ===== | |||
See Centos | |||
===== CentOS ===== | |||
You first need to add the EPEL repository for PROJ.4 and GDAL, see [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/FAQ#How_can_I_install_the_packages_from_the_EPEL_software_repository.3F here] | |||

===== openSUSE ===== | |||
To build GRASS on openSUSE: | |||
''Application:Geo'' repo to be added (see [https://software.opensuse.org//download.html?project=Application%3AGeo&package=gdal Install package Application:Geo] | |||

--with-wxwidgets \ | |||
--with-odbc \ | |||
--with-python | |||
</source> | |||
Then compile with "make [-j2]". | |||
===== Arch Linux ===== | |||
Up-to-date links to Arch Linux GRASS PKGBUILDs are on https://grass.osgeo.org/download/software/linux/. | |||
But if you want to compile it yourself, you have to keep in mind that in Arch Linux the default Python version 3. | |||
python --version | |||
Python 3.3.1 | |||
Therefore, to build GRASS GIS (version 7 in this example), we can use either use virtualenv or symlink python2 and python2-config in a given directory. | |||
Let's use the latter approach | |||
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/python2 $HOME/usr/bin/python | |||
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/python2-config $HOME/usr/bin/python-config | |||
We can now start building GRASS 7 | |||
export PATH=~/usr/bin:$PATH && \ | |||
./configure \ | |||
--enable-debug \ | |||
--enable-64bit \ | |||
--with-libs=/usr/lib64 \ | |||
--with-cxx \ | |||
--with-readline \ | |||
--with-zlib-includes="/usr/include/" \ | |||
--with-freetype=yes \ | |||
--with-freetype-includes="/usr/include/freetype2/" \ | |||
--enable-largefile=yes \ | |||
--with-gdal=/usr/bin/gdal-config \ | |||
--with-proj-share=/usr/share/proj/ \ | |||
--with-geos=/usr/bin/geos-config \ | |||
--with-cairo \ | |||
--with-odbc \ | |||
--with-pthread \ | |||
--with-liblas=/usr/local/bin/liblas-config \ | |||
--with-fftw-includes="/usr/include/" \ | |||
--with-fftw-libs=/usr/lib/ \ | |||
--with-tcltk-includes="/usr/include/" \ | |||
--with-wxwidgets \ | |||
--with-postgres=yes \ | |||
--with-postgres-includes="/usr/include/postgresql/internal" \ | |||
--with-postgres-libs="/usr/include/postgresql/internal/libpq" \ | |||
--with-sqlite=yes \ | |||
--with-python=yes \ | |||
--with-liblas \ | |||
--with-netcdf | |||
Now let's compile and install it | |||
make | |||
sudo make install | |||
Now the final step required to use GRASS with python2 is to create a bash script "grass" (or the name you want) | |||
#!/bin/bash | |||
export PATH=~/usr/bin:$PATH | |||
python2 /usr/local/bin/grass72 | |||
And make it executable and copy it somewhere in the PATH | |||
chmod+x grass | |||
sudo cp grass /usr/local/bin | |||
It's done, you can enjoy GRASS 7 in Arch, just type "grass" (or the name you gave to the script) in the terminal to launch it. | |||

==== FreeBSD / NetBSD ==== | |||
The recommended compiler tools are GCC, GNU make, GNU coreutils (for install), and flex. All are available through the respective package managing tools (pkg_add for FreeBSD and pkgin install for NetBSD) and for recent *BSD versions most likely installed by default. | |||
GRASS 6.x and GRASS 7 should compile on FreeBSD 8.0 or later and NetBSD 5.0 or later (maybe also on updated NetBSD 4.x). | |||
It is highly recommended to install GDAL/OGR and PROJ4 first. These libraries and tools are available as [http://www.freebsd.org/ports/ ports for FreeBSD] and [http://www.pkgsrc.org/ packages for NetBSD]. | |||
Optional functionality is listed with ''./configure --help'', and related libraries and tools might need to be installed first. | |||
You then may need to edit include/Make/Platform.make and set | |||
ICONVLIB = -liconv | |||

===== 11 SPARC/i86pc ===== | |||
The recommended compiler tools are GCC, GNU make, GNU coreutils (for install), and flex. All are available through the Solaris package manager. | |||
Most dependencies are available through the Solaris package manager. GDAL and proj4 can either be compiled from source or installed e.g. from [http://www.opencsw.org/ OpenCSW]. If packages are installed from OpenCSW, the linker flags need to be set with | |||
LDFLAGS="-Wl,-R/opt/csw/lib -L/opt/csw/lib -Wl,-R/opt/csw/gxx/lib -L/opt/csw/gxx/lib" | |||

==== AIX ==== | ==== AIX ==== | ||
A recent [ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/ GNU make] (>= 3.81) and GNU coreutils are required. These are available with the [http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/power/software/aix/linux/toolbox/download.html IBM AIX toolbox] or through third-party AIX software repositories, e.g. [http://www.bullfreeware.com/ bullfreeware] and [http://www.perzl.org/aix/ perzl.org]. Note that 'make' does not work, only 'gmake' works. | |||
General instructions to compile on AIX are e.g. [http://www.perzl.org/aix/index.php?n=Main.Instructions here] | |||
On AIX, compilation results by default in 32 bit applications and static libraries. The [http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/aix/library/au-gnu.html IBM documentation] explains how to build 64 bit applications and shared libraries with GCC. | |||

Disclaimer: This page explains how to turn the GRASS GIS source code into an installable binary package ("compilation") for different operating systems. If you just want to get ready-to-use binaries, go here, otherwise read on...
How to do compilation and installation of GRASS GIS?
Here we explain the procedure to compile GRASS from SVN, but it also applies to official GRASS 6 releases.
For installation of precompiled binary packages, see the main Installation Guide.
For detailed information on compilation, please see the INSTALL file in the source code.
Prerequisites
Extra libraries
GRASS needs at least two extra libraries: PROJ and GDAL/OGR
Note: if you want to have DBMS support in GDAL (subsequently in GRASS) you have to perform the "Optional" steps below as well.
- PROJ4 for management of projections (with proj-datumgrid-1.3.zip support)
- Optional: GEOS
- Optional: PostgreSQL, mySQL, unixODBC, SQLite (SQLite is needed for QGIS)
- GDAL/OGR for reading and writing various GIS data formats (interoperability)
You have to install these two libraries first (see below how to get them precompiled for your system).
It is easiest to obtain a prepackaged version of these libraries (e.g., .rpm; .deb) for your particular operating system and run the corresponding package installation (e.g., rpm -Uhv packagename.rpm; apt-get) in a terminal window. Take care to also install the development packages of these libraries (...-devel packages). If there is no prepackage version, then you will have to download the source code (see links above, source code packages usually ends in .tar.gz or .zip) and compile it (you must have a C compiler installed as part of your operating system). The Web sites show the steps to compile the libraries.
Other libraries needed to run GRASS are listed on the requirements page.
To compile, you will also need the respective "-devel" packages.
Download GRASS GIS source code
Then download the GRASS GIS source code of course.
Generic Compilation and installation procedure
- It is wise that compilation processes are carried out as a normal user: If you want to get the source code in a place where you do not have write permissions (e.g. in /usr/local/src/) just follow this:
cd /usr/local/src/ su -c 'mkdir grass6' su -c 'chown yourlogin:yourgroup grass6'
Otherwise if you have permissions just continue as a normal user:
cd /usr/local/src/ svn checkout ...
- do a code checkout from the SVN source code repository
- checkout the latest GRASS 6.x from SVN (see: [1])
- in the grass6 directory, you will find the precious INSTALL file, open it with your favourite pager/editor and read it carefully!
- run configure with parameters to adapt the compile process to your own system. To see what options can be passed to it, run:
./configure --help | less
It may (!) look like this:
./configure \ --with-cxx \ --with-sqlite \ --with-postgres-libs=/usr/include/pgsql/libpq \ --with-postgres-includes=/usr/include/pgsql \ --with-freetype \ --with-freetype-includes=/usr/include/freetype2 \ --with-motif \ --with-proj-share=/usr/share/proj
You may have to explicitly state the path for certain packages (i.e., gdal). The Unix 'locate' command will come in handy for finding the path of the package you need (you may have to run locate as root ex: sudo locate gdal-config).
Please note that the paths mentioned may widely vary due to the distribution used. See Platform Specific Notes below.
Depending on your needs it may be a good idea to include debugging hooks.
CFLAGS="-ggdb -Wall -Werror-implicit-function-declaration" ./configure ...
At the end of configuration process you should get report not much different from this:
GRASS is now configured for: i686-pc-linux-gnu
Source directory: /usr/src/grass6 Build directory: /usr/src/grass6 Installation directory: /usr/local/grass-6.3.svn Startup script in directory: ${exec_prefix}/bin C compiler: gcc -g -O2 C++ compiler: c++ -g -O2 FORTRAN compiler: Building shared libraries: yes 64bit support: no NVIZ: yes BLAS support: no C++ support: yes DWG support: no FFMPEG support: no FFTW support: yes FreeType support: yes GDAL support: yes GLw support: no LAPACK support: no Large File Support (LFS): no Motif support: no MySQL support: no NLS support: no ODBC support: no OGR support: yes OpenGL(R) support: yes PNG support: yes PostgreSQL support: yes Readline support: no SQLite support: no Tcl/Tk support: yes TIFF support: yes X11 support: yes
- Let's compile it (takes a little while...)!
make
- At the end, you should get report not much different from this:
---------------------------------------------------------------------- Following modules are missing the 'description.html' file in src code: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- GRASS GIS compilation log ------------------------- Started compilation: Ne kvě 28 13:18:43 CEST 2006 -- Errors in: -- Finished compilation: Ne kvě 28 13:43:40 CEST 2006 (In case of errors please change into the directory with error and run 'make')
- If there is any error, change directory to directory with error and run "make" again. Report occuring bug to grass mailing list
- Once the installation process is finished, you're ready to install GRASS system wide.
su -c 'make install'
- enjoy GRASS:
grass64
What else?
If you want to use QGIS, then also compile the GRASS-GDAL/OGR plugin. This is also useful to access your GRASS-data from other application using GDAL/OGR like thuban.
- Compile and install GRASS and QGIS with GDAL/OGR Plugin (enables QGIS to read GRASS data directly)
Compile and install GDAL-GRASS plugin

Enterprise Linux
Enterprise Linux (EL) and derivatives (that is, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS and Scientific Linux) is a popular and robust platform for servers and computing-heavy workstations, and is therefore a good fit for GIS specific requirements.
See: http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Enterprise_Linux_GIS
Scientific Linux
See Centos
CentOS
You first need to add the EPEL repository for PROJ.4 and GDAL, see here
Preparation Centos 5 (old):
yum install epel-release # Note: CentOS 5 comes with Python 2.4 which lacks python-config, hence two extra tweaks are needed. yum install flex bison zlib-devel tcl-devel tk-devel gcc-c++ gettext \ libtiff-devel libpng-devel sqlite-devel \ mesa-libGL-devel mesa-libGLU-devel mesa-libGLw-devel \ mesa-libOSMesa-devel libXmu-devel python-devel gtk2-devel\ ncurses-devel postgresql-devel make

GRASS GIS 7 compilation and installation
Download source code (e.g., --> "Download latest 7.4-svn code)" and configure GRASS 7 (suggestion: save this as script):
./configure \ --with-cxx \ --enable-largefile \ --with-proj --with-proj-share=/usr/share/proj \ --with-gdal=/usr/bin/gdal-config \ --with-sqlite \ --with-python \ --with-cairo --with-cairo-ldflags=-lfontconfig \ --with-freetype --with-freetype-includes=/usr/include/freetype2 \ --with-wxwidgets=/usr/bin/wx-config \ --with-openmp \ --with-blas --with-blas-includes=/usr/include/atlas-x86_64-base/ \ --with-lapack --with-lapack-includes=/usr/include/atlas-x86_64-base/ \ --with-fftw \ --with-geos \ --with-netcdf \ --without-ffmpeg \ --without-mysql \ --without-postgres \ --without-odbc \ --without-fftw
Compile:
make
or on a multicore system (number depends of available cores):
make -j4
For a system wide installation, run as root user:
make install
OR simply run it directly from the source code directory (substitute ARCH with i686 or x86_64):
bin.$ARCH/grass74 -gui
In this case, for convenience, add it to the search path:
mkdir $HOME/bin cd $HOME/bin # example: ln -s $HOME/software/grass74_release/bin.i686-pc-linux-gnu/grass74 .
Now use it subsequently with
grass74 -gui

GRASS GIS 6 on Fedora
Preparation for the compilation of GRASS GIS 6 source code (F16-F21):
yum install proj-devel gdal-devel sqlite-devel ffmpeg-devel mesa-libGL-devel \ mesa-libGLU-devel libXmu-devel libX11-devel tcl-devel tk-devel geos \ fftw-devel libtiff-devel lesstif-devel python-devel numpy wxPython wxGTK-devel \ gcc gcc-c++ bison flex ncurses-devel proj-epsg proj-nad xml2 subversion
Note 1: that currently gdal-devel has (too) many dependencies and may lead to a massive download of extra packages (200 on a fresh Fedora 16 install). Hopefully solved in later Fedora versions.
Note 2: the optional ffmpeg-devel comes from the rpmfusion-free repository (configuration).
Download the source code:
- GRASS GIS 6: release package - weekly snapshot - SVN repository
Configure: This is an example how to configure the source code on a Fedora system:
./configure \ --with-cxx \ --with-gdal=/usr/bin/gdal-config \ --with-proj --with-proj-share=/usr/share/proj \ --with-sqlite \ --with-nls \ --with-geos \ --with-wxwidgets=/usr/bin/wx-config \ --with-python=/usr/bin/python-config \ --with-freetype --with-freetype-includes=/usr/include/freetype2 \ --enable-largefile \ --without-odbc \ --with-fftw
Extra: If you also want FFMPEG support - it requires 'yum install fftw-devel'. Then add to the configuration lines above:
--with-ffmpeg --with-ffmpeg-includes="/usr/include/ffmpeg /usr/include/ffmpeg/libav* /usr/include/ffmpeg/libpostproc /usr/include/ffmpeg/libswscale" \
Finally compile the configured source code:
make or on multicore (number depends of available cores): make -j4 and make install # requires root permissions unless you become owner of /usr/local/
Then use GRASS GIS 6 and enjoy!

./configure \ --with-cxx \ --with-gdal=/usr/bin/gdal-config \ --with-proj --with-proj-share=/usr/share/proj \ --with-python=/usr/bin/python-config \ --with-geos \ --with-sqlite \ --with-nls \ --with-wxwidgets=/usr/bin/wx-config \ --with-fftw \ --with-cairo --with-cairo-ldflags=-lfontconfig \ --with-freetype --with-freetype-includes=/usr/include/freetype2 \ --enable-largefile \ --without-odbc
Extra 1: If you also want FFMPEG support - it requires 'dnf install fftw-devel' from the rpmfusion-free repository. Then add to the configuration lines above:
--with-ffmpeg --with-ffmpeg-includes="/usr/include/ffmpeg /usr/include/ffmpeg/libav* /usr/include/ffmpeg/libpostproc /usr/include/ffmpeg/libswscale" \
Extra 2: For LAPACK/BLAS support (addons i.spec.unmix, v.kriging etc), install "dnf install lapack lapack-devel blas blas-devel atlas atlas-devel". Then add to the configuration lines above:
--with-blas --with-blas-includes=/usr/include/atlas-x86_64-base/ \ --with-lapack --with-lapack-includes=/usr/include/atlas-x86_64-base/ \
Extra 3: For ZSTD support (Zstandard compression algorithm), first install "dnf install libzstd libzstd-devel zstd". After installing the zstd related packages, add to the configuration lines above:
--with-zstd \
Finally compile the configured source code:
make or on multicore (number depends of available cores): make -j4 and make install # requires root permissions unless you become owner of /usr/local/
Then use GRASS GIS 7 and enjoy!

Arch Linux
Up-to-date links to Arch Linux GRASS PKGBUILDs are on https://grass.osgeo.org/download/software/linux/.
But if you want to compile it yourself, you have to keep in mind that in Arch Linux the default Python version 3.
python --version
Python 3.3.1
Therefore, to build GRASS GIS (version 7 in this example), we can use either use virtualenv or symlink python2 and python2-config in a given directory. Let's use the latter approach
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/python2 $HOME/usr/bin/python sudo ln -s /usr/bin/python2-config $HOME/usr/bin/python-config
We can now start building GRASS 7
export PATH=~/usr/bin:$PATH && \ ./configure \ --enable-debug \ --enable-64bit \ --with-libs=/usr/lib64 \ --with-cxx \ --with-readline \ --with-zlib-includes="/usr/include/" \ --with-freetype=yes \ --with-freetype-includes="/usr/include/freetype2/" \ --enable-largefile=yes \ --with-gdal=/usr/bin/gdal-config \ --with-proj-share=/usr/share/proj/ \ --with-geos=/usr/bin/geos-config \ --with-cairo \ --with-odbc \ --with-pthread \ --with-liblas=/usr/local/bin/liblas-config \ --with-fftw-includes="/usr/include/" \ --with-fftw-libs=/usr/lib/ \ --with-tcltk-includes="/usr/include/" \ --with-wxwidgets \ --with-postgres=yes \ --with-postgres-includes="/usr/include/postgresql/internal" \ --with-postgres-libs="/usr/include/postgresql/internal/libpq" \ --with-sqlite=yes \ --with-python=yes \ --with-liblas \ --with-netcdf
Now let's compile and install it
make sudo make install
Now the final step required to use GRASS with python2 is to create a bash script "grass" (or the name you want)
#!/bin/bash export PATH=~/usr/bin:$PATH python2 /usr/local/bin/grass72
And make it executable and copy it somewhere in the PATH
chmod+x grass sudo cp grass /usr/local/bin
It's done, you can enjoy GRASS 7 in Arch, just type "grass" (or the name you gave to the script) in the terminal to launch it.

FreeBSD / NetBSD
The recommended compiler tools are GCC, GNU make, GNU coreutils (for install), and flex. All are available through the respective package managing tools (pkg_add for FreeBSD and pkgin install for NetBSD) and for recent *BSD versions most likely installed by default.
GRASS 6.x and GRASS 7 should compile on FreeBSD 8.0 or later and NetBSD 5.0 or later (maybe also on updated NetBSD 4.x).
It is highly recommended to install GDAL/OGR and PROJ4 first. These libraries and tools are available as ports for FreeBSD and packages for NetBSD.
Optional functionality is listed with ./configure --help, and related libraries and tools might need to be installed first.
You then may need to edit include/Make/Platform.make and set
ICONVLIB = -liconv
Solaris
- 2008 Oct 15: see this post on the grass mailing list
11 SPARC/i86pc
The recommended compiler tools are GCC, GNU make, GNU coreutils (for install), and flex. All are available through the Solaris package manager.
Most dependencies are available through the Solaris package manager. GDAL and proj4 can either be compiled from source or installed e.g. from OpenCSW. If packages are installed from OpenCSW, the linker flags need to be set with
LDFLAGS="-Wl,-R/opt/csw/lib -L/opt/csw/lib -Wl,-R/opt/csw/gxx/lib -L/opt/csw/gxx/lib"
See also the OpenCSW documentation.
10 SPARC/i86pc
- get gcc compiler and tools. There are several sources: Solaris Companion CD (SFW pkg, installs in /opt/sfw/), Blastwave ([2], CSW pkg, installs in /opt/csw/) or Sunfreeware ([3], SMC pkg, installs in /usr/local/).
Needed Packages from Sunfreeware: SMCbinut, SMCbison, SMCcoreu, SMCfindu, SMCflex, SMCgawk, SMCgcc, SMCgrep, SMCgzip, SMCless, SMClibt, SMClicon, SMCmake, SMCncurs, SMCproj, SMCsed, SMCtar, SMCtcl, SMCtiff, SMCtk, SMCunzip, SMCzlib.
- compile and install fftw-library ([4]). You need to re-compile the library with:
./configure --with-pic --enable-shared; make ; make install.
The pre-built packages don't work.
- compile and install gdal library (see documentation of gdal, [5]).
- compile and install any additional libraries (e. g. GEOS, [6]).
- set compiler flags and path. e. g.:
# on ultra-sparc machine: CFLAGS="-O3 -mcpu=v9" CXXFLAGS="-O3 -mcpu=v9" PATH="/usr/local/bin:/opt/sfw/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin" export CFLAGS CXXFLAGS PATH
Path has to be changed for the packages (Sunfreeware: /usr/local/bin, Solaris Companion: /opt/sfw/bin, Blastwave: /opt/csw/bin).
- Next configure, e. g.:
./configure --with-postgres-includes=/usr/include/pgsql/ \ --with-postgres-libs=/usr/lib --with-postgres=yes \ --with-includes=/usr/local/include/ncurses
If you use n(ew)curses, you have to include the path /usr/local/include/ncurses.
then:
make su make install
If the shared libraries are not found at runtime of the modules, use 'crle' to add the paths of the libraries for the dynamic linker, e. g. as root:
crle -l /lib:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib:/opt/sfw/lib:/usr/X11/lib
Be careful not to omit a library path, the system may be unusable if you forget the /lib path.
AIX
A recent GNU make (>= 3.81) and GNU coreutils are required. These are available with the IBM AIX toolbox or through third-party AIX software repositories, e.g. bullfreeware and perzl.org. Note that 'make' does not work, only 'gmake' works.
General instructions to compile on AIX are e.g. here
On AIX, compilation results by default in 32 bit applications and static libraries. The IBM documentation explains how to build 64 bit applications and shared libraries with GCC.
GRASS 6: Using the IBM xlc compiler:
Mike wrote in 2009:
After attempting all the suggestions, I finally used --disable-shared on the configure command, and all but a handful of modules successfully compiled. I was able to individually address the ones that failed through Makefile edits and several small source code/header file edits.
The environment variables and configure command that worked were:
# xlc compiler: export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/opt/freeware/bin:$PATH export OBJECT_MODE=64 export LIBICONV=/opt/freeware export CC="xlc_r -q64" export CFLAGS="-O -qstrict" export CXX="xlC_r -q64" export CXXFLAGS="-O -qstrict" export AR="ar -X64" export F77="xlf_r -q64" export CPPFLAGS="-I/afs/isis/pkg/libpng/include -I/usr/local/include -I$LIBICONV/include -I/usr/lpp/X11/include/X11" export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib -L$LIBICONV/lib -L/usr/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lc" ./configure --prefix=/afs/isis/pkg/grass-6.4.0 \ --enable-64bit \ --disable-shared \ --with-includes="/usr/include/fontconfig /usr/include/X11 /usr/include/X11/Xft /usr/include/X11/ext" \ --x-includes=/usr/include/X11 \ --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib \ --with-fftw-includes=/afs/isis/pkg/fftw-3.2.2/include \ --with-fftw-libs=/afs/isis/pkg/fftw-3.2.2/lib \ --with-gdal=/afs/isis/pkg/gdal/bin/gdal-config \ --with-proj-includes=/afs/isis/pkg/proj/include \ --with-proj-libs=/afs/isis/pkg/proj/lib \ --with-proj-share=/afs/isis/pkg/proj/share/proj \ --with-tcltk-includes=/usr/local/include \ --with-tcltk-libs=/usr/local/lib \ --with-opengl-includes=/usr/include/GL

Common problems and solutions
During compilation, error can occur if certain packages are not installed. Here a list of problems with solution:
- error: X11/Xlib.h: No such file or directory
- this suggests that you don't have the X headers installed
- Solution: Install the libx11-dev package
- error: g.list: error while loading shared libraries: libgdal1.6.0.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
- this error appears in the shell right after the user clicks GUI's "Start GRASS" button. The GUI shows an error about geographic extent and gets closed afterwards.
- It happens when you launch bin.i686 executable on 64bit system. Be careful and choose the right architecture.
Static compilation
In order to get static rather than dynamically linked binaries, configure like this:
./configure --disable-shared --enable-static
This will however break the wxGUI and GRASS 7 completely because "ctypes" wants to link against shared libs, or there is something in the static libs that "ctypes" does not like.
Optimization
GCC and other compilers support optimization
If you would like to set compiler optimisations, for a possibly faster binary, type (don't enter a ";" anywhere):
CFLAGS=-O ./configure
or,
setenv CFLAGS -O ./configure
whichever works on your shell. Use -O2 instead of -O if your compiler supports this (note: O is the letter, not zero). Using the "gcc" compiler, you can also specify processor specific flags (examples, please suggest better settings to us):
CFLAGS="-mcpu=athlon -O2" # AMD Athlon processor with code optimisations CFLAGS="-march=amdfam10" # AMD Phenom II X4 64bit processor with gcc >=4.3 CFLAGS="-mcpu=pentium" # Intel Pentium processor CFLAGS="-mcpu=pentium4" # Intel Pentium4 processor CFLAGS="-O2 -msse -msse2 -mfpmath=sse -minline-all-stringops" # Intel XEON 64bit processor CFLAGS="-mtune=nocona -m64 -minline-all-stringops" # Intel Pentium 64bit processor
To find out optional CFLAGS for your platform, enter:
gcc -dumpspecs
See also: http://gcc.gnu.org/
A real fast GRASS version (and small binaries) will be created with LDFLAGS set to "stripping" (but this disables debugging):
CFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=<cpu_see_above> -Wall" LDFLAGS="-s" ./configure
Configure options and their meanings
For configure there are many options and some GRASS modules are built only if some options are set. Here are listed common configuration options with short explanation.
- --prefix=/path - Sets path where GRASS will be installed. GRASS will reside in /path/grass-version.
- --enable-largefile - Enables large (>2Gb on 32bit systems) support. For current large file support status look at Large File Support page.
- --with-cxx - Enables compilation of C++ code. Required for r.terraflow module.
- --with-readline - Enables readline support. If readline is enabled, you can use its history/editing facilities when entering r.mapcalc expressions on stdin.
- --with-glw - Enables GLw support. The GLw library provides OpenGL "canvas" widgets for Athena and Motif.
That switch is unnecessary for normal compilation. It's only required for r3.showdspf, which isn't normally built; if you want it, you have build it manually (e.g. "make -C raster3d/r3.showdspf"). As similar functionality is now provided by NVIZ, r3.showdspf is deprecated. r3.showdspf uses the Motif widget (so you also need a Motif library, e.g. Lesstif or OpenMotif). Glynn Clements at GRASS-user mailing list
Parallelized compilation on multi-core CPUs
You can dramatically accelerate the compilation of the GRASS code with the -j flag of "make" if you have a multi-core CPU system. This determines the maximum number of jobs to have running at once, so cores don't have to sit idle waiting for jobs on other cores to complete. A good rule of thumb for this value is number_of_cores * 1.5, but note that setting any higher than the actual number of cores will only affect the timing slightly. For example, on a dual-core processor:
make -j 4
GRASS-GDAL plugin
Addons
Please note that the installation of Addons can be easily done with the g.extension manager. The compile instructions below are aiming at own development.
Compiled modules
This is the general way which works for C modules as well as scripts (Python or Shell/Bash modules) which has HTML documentation.
Requirements:
Either:
- a binary GRASS package, or
- source code which has been prepared with:
./configure [opionally flags] make libs
Each of the addon modules should come with a Makefile. To compile it, just run:
make MODULE_TOPDIR=/path/to/grass64/
Note that the /path/to/grass64 has to be absolute, not relative.
If using Bash it may be useful to set that up as an alias:
alias gmake64='make MODULE_TOPDIR=/path/to/grass64/'
Installation (perhaps requires "sudo"):
make MODULE_TOPDIR=/path/to/grass64/ install
Note: Compiled addons may require a re-compilation if you changed/updated your GRASS standard binaries.
If binary comes with a -dev package
(work in progress, this text states how it eventually will be :) Nowadays one does not need to the source code, nor compiling GRASS by oneself to be able to add add-ons. On Debian, you can just install the grass-dev package and then run:
make MODULE_TOPDIR=/usr/lib/grass64/ INST_DIR=/usr/lib/grass64/
The grass-dev package essentially provides GRASS's include header files and Make configuration files.
Scripts
If the addon module is a script, it is sufficient to copy it into the (GRASS binaries) path somewhere. Alternatively, install addons into a separate GRASS addons binaries/scripts directory which is easier to maintain. It avoids getting clobbered every time you reinstall GRASS. To use these separately stored scripts, set and export the GRASS_ADDON_PATH environment variable before starting GRASS and it will automatically be added to the module search path (see the variables help page). To simplify this, do for example:
# add in $HOME/.bashrc: GRASS_ADDON_PATH=/usr/local/grass/addons/ export GRASS_ADDON_PATH
Make sure that the script is executable, then just call it in GRASS typing the filename. Python scripts need to be called writing the extension as well, like:
