#65-  Compilation of XGRASS:
           - Change gmake4.2 to HASMOTIF=yes
             (Thanks to Jacques Bouchard for the diffs)
           
         - Then you should be able to compile XGRASS without Motif

#63- Redhat users: if you have problems to compile r.infer and r.binfer:
        -> in the directories src/raster/r.binfer and
                              src/raster/r.infer/cmd
           you find new files (extension: .redhat) which help
           to fix these problems. You have to exchange the
           original files with these new files
      
#62- included src.contrib/NMSU/WRAT 
      bugfixing.   
      - ga/ga.c:  include definitions corrected (colons deleted)
      - wrat/ta.c: include definitions corrected (colons deleted)
      - wrat/runoff.c: the same
      - wrat/qual.c: the same
      - and so on.
      - remove.c remove -> Remove

      - wrat is called r.wrat now.

#61- src.alpha/misc/m.in.pl94.db3/m.in.pl94.db.c  
      Sucessfully patched - diff-file is there

#60- src.alpha/misc/m.in.stf1.db3/m.in.stf1.db.c  
      Sucessfully patched - diff-file is there

#59- src421/src.alpha/raster/r.flow/ 
      I have corrected the Gmakefile: $(DIR) was wrong.

#58- included src.contrib/OTHER/v.in.poly
  
#57- included src.contrib/OTHER/v.reg (for registration of 7.5" maps)

#56- removed src.contrib/OTHER/s.to.rast (obsolete, already in src.alpha)

#55- src.contrib/CERL/imagery/
    i.rvi.prediction2 -> i.rvi.prediction (renamed)
    included in src/CMD/lists/GRASS

#54- src.contrib/CERL/raster/r.ndvi.model
    corrected Gmakefile (module was stored at ./ and not in binary tree)

#53- src.contrib/CERL/raster/r.ndvi.model
    corrected globals.h: NBANDS was undefined:
        #define NBANDS 3
    (taken from ../../imagery/i.rvi.prediction)

    corrected main.c
      line 44:
           opt2->mutilple   = YES;
      to
           opt2->multiple   = YES;
  
    some error is still there.

         
#52- Corrections for the FIRE package (r.spreadpath etc.)
    
    There were several errors in Pi-definition:
    float PI=3.14159

    Errors like:
     gcc -O -m486  -I/usr/local/grass42/src421/src/include -DUSE_TERMIO -c
     spread.c
     spread.c:48: parse error before 3.14159265358979323846
     make: *** [OBJ.linux/spread.o] Error 1

   After commenting these PI-definitions in
   src/r.spread
     main.c - line 51
     spread.c - line 48
     select_linksB.c - line 36
     spot.c - l.61

   it compiles fine on Slackware Linux gcc 2.7.1
 
#51- some new comments in src/CMD/lists/GRASS 

#50- restructured src.alpha/raster/r.in.hdf  (nearly running now)

--------------------------------------------------------------
BETA 6  (29.1.98)
--------------------------------------------------------------
#49- the package was splitted - documents are in an extra package
    now (because of package size)
#48- the instructions were improved to be more clearly
#47- corrections src/mapdev/v.in.dxf
    (thanks to Jacques Bouchard  )

    Problem:
      In file included from add_bounds.c:5:
      dxf2vect.h:53: >basename< redeclared as different kind of symbol
      /usr/include/string.h:245: previous declaration of >basename<
      make: *** [OBJ.linux/add_bounds.o] Error 1
    solution:
      Changed >basename< into >base_name< in:
        add_bounds.c
        add_extents.c
        dxf2vect.h
        main.c
        open_layer.c
        reopen_layer.c
#46- added r.affinity classifier to src.extra/raster section

--------------------------------------------------------------
BETA 5  (27.1.98)
--------------------------------------------------------------
#45- XDRIVER24 restructured !!
      find XDRIVER 8bit:  src421/src/display/devices/XDRIVER_8
      find XDRIVER 24bit: src421/src/display/devices/XDRIVER_24
    (moved XDRIVER24 from src.extra to src/display/devices and 
     Gmakefile-bugfix)

#44- included d.area, d.barscale, d.myzoom, d.pan
#43- update for r.bilinear: irint defined (thanks to George Chou - gchou@gpz.com)
#42- update for r.nntool (thanks to George Chou - gchou@gpz.com)
#41- new: - src.contrib/NRCS/raster/r.in.doq - reads in an uncompressed USGS
                                            Digitial Orthophotography  
         - src.contrib/NRCS/vector/v.report - this file works but it is picky
                      about the dig_cats file.  It wants a line for 0:nodata 
                      and it appreciates it if the number of attributes are 
                      numbered beginning with one.
         - src/mapdev/v.mkquads - same as other but you can make quarter 
                                quads, thirds, 1x3 
    => Thanks to Anthony Burns 
         (email: KY#c#KY.BLNKY01#c#agburns@KCC.FSA.USDA.GOV)
#40- included v.line2area from moon.cecer.army.mil into src.alpha/scripts
    (useful for v.in.dxf3d)
#39- updated documents (included GRASS 4.2 docs) and history.
#38- new section:
       files_for_binary_installation/   -> postscript printer devicefiles
    read README there for installation
#37- renamed untested/raster/r.read -> r.in.milgeo (module for german MilGeo-Data)
#36- restructured documentation

--------------------------------------------------------------
BETA 4  (19.1.98)
--------------------------------------------------------------
#35 - the corrections for v.build and v.clean are included.
       Many thanks to Michel Wurtz - LTE 
     
#34 - one new module: v.what (query vector categories)

--------------------------------------------------------------
BETA 3 (11.1.98)
--------------------------------------------------------------

Changes:  
#33 - cleared off some unused source code from src.contrib/SCS
      to avoid confusion.
#32 - g.help gives problems while compiling, commented out in
       src/CMD/lists/GRASS
      Who can help? But I think it is not serious to miss the module...
#31 - bugfix for ps.select integrated
#30 - bugfix for v.support (the old 4.1.5 bugfix from CERL) in level_two.c
#29 - update r.param.scale (Version: Jo Wood, 23rd May, 1995)
#28 - added several modules to src421/untested-area
#27 - several new modules in src.extra-section (partly from untested-section) 
         with small corrections (see Whats-new-in-421.html)
#26 - extended src421/documents/modules/ - documentation


--------------------------------------------------------------
BETA 2
--------------------------------------------------------------
7.1.98

#25)  New modules:
        r.tiff  (src.extra) - but 8bit version only!
        r.le version 2.2 (src.alpha)

8.1.98
  
#24)  Deleted some modules in untested/ area which are already
      in src.alpha.



-------------------------------------------------------------
BETA 1 (7.1.98)
-------------------------------------------------------------

#23) Problem 2: The v.digit does not have contact to GRASS Monitor.

Solution (thanks to Michel Wurtz): 

v.digit compiles, but doesn't work
because an old assumption on Termio : in System V.2, reading a
serial line without the need of a LF is possible, but the driver
wait at least VMIN char on input or VTIME ms before returning
anything.  In older termio libs, VEOF=VTIME and VEOL=VMIN (or
the opposite), but this is not true with Linux
(See /usr/include/asm/termbits.h).

If you want run v.digit you should edit line 50 and 51 of the
file "set_key.c", replacing VEOL and VEOF by VTIME and VMIN.

This is for keyboard entry. I have not yet tested the digitizers,
but I'm sure that it will not work without editing "graph_input.c"
at lines 598 and 599, doing the same change.

Other solution:

 Take the libcurses from Slackware 3.3 (to be installed in /usr/lib)


#22) r.nntool: could not be compiled.

Solution   (thanks to Michel Wurtz):

 Obviously, the external declarations are often missing... and
 some are redundant (and may be false, like FILE *fclose() !)
 nint() is used as a function, and a cast to integer.  I have
 replaced all occurences by (int) which is correct with gcc.


==========================================================================
Changes to basic GRASS 4.2 from Baylor University (Dec. 1997)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------


#1) The first problem appears here (with Linux, not with Solaris):

  >grass4.2/src/front.end
  >make -f OBJ.linux/make.rules
  >gcc  -o /home/phisan/tmp/grass4.2/etc/front.end OBJ.linux/main.o
  >  /home/phisan/tmp/grass4.2/src/libes/LIB.linux/libgis.a
  > /home/phisan/tmp/grass4.2/src/libes/LIB.linux/libgis.a(gisinit.o): 
  >In function G__gisinit':
  >gisinit.o(.text+0xc): undefined reference to G__set_program_name'
  >gisinit.o(.text+0x1b): undefined reference to G__location_path'

 Solution:
  cd ../src/libes/gis/
  textedit Gmakefile

  Remove the character '#'.
     index.o\
   #   intr_char.o\
     key_value1.o\

  Should look like this: (intr_char will be used in i.class)
     index.o\
     intr_char.o\
     key_value1.o\

  Comments are not allowed here (and unnecessary!).

#2) You _might_ get a problem in d.3d:

 Solution:  
   textedit src42/src/CMD/head/linux.head
   Change
     CURSES              = -lncurses $(TERMLIB)
   to
     CURSES              = -lcurses $(TERMLIB)
   

#3) r.combine:

    OBJ.linux/gis_lxcl.o: In function yylex':
    OBJ.linux/gis_lxcl.o(.text+0x5a1): undefined reference to yyinput'
    make[1]: *** [/usr/local/grass42/etc/r.combine] Error 1

 Solution: yyinput() is for C++, use input() for linux flex 

    modify src/raster/r.combine/cmd/gis_lxcl.l - line 176 
        change from 
           while ((achar=yyinput()) != 012) 
        to 
           while ((achar = input()) != 012) 

  (idea from KANG from GRASS 4.1.5)

#4) r.nntool (1)
    > cc -O -m486 -I/usr/local/grass42/src42/src/mapdev/Vlib
    > -I/usr/local/grass42/src42/src/mapdev/diglib
    > -I/usr/local/grass42/src42/src/include -DUSE_TERMIO -c net.cnet.c:41:
    > /usr2/grass4.0/src/libes/gis.h: No such file or directory
    > make: *** [OBJ.linux/net.o] Error 1
  
 Solution:  
   cd ../src.alpha/raster/r.nntool

   Edit net.c
    Change in line 41:
       #include "/usr2/grass4.0/src/libes/gis.h"
    to:
       #include  "gis.h"

  Also edit Gmakefile
   Remove second line:
     BIN_ALPHA_CMD = .
   Then the binary file will be installed in the correct directory.

#5) r.nntool (2) Several files had been corrected.
    Thanks to 
      Michel Wurtz    ENGEES - Laboratoire Territoires & Environnement
      mw@engees.u-strasbg.fr

#6) r.cn
   
    > cc -s -o /usr/local/grass42/etc/bin/alpha/cmd OBJ.linux/main.o
    > OBJ.linux/cell_open.o OBJ.linux/hy_soil_group.o OBJ.linux/cell_open_new.o
    > OBJ.linux/rules.o OBJ.linux/data.o OBJ.linux/amc_conversion.o
    > /usr/local/grass42/src42/src/libes/LIB.linux/libgis.a -lm
    > /usr/i486-linux/bin/ld: cannot open output file
    > /usr/local/grass42/etc/bin/alpha/cmd: Is a directory
    > make: *** [/usr/local/grass42/etc/bin/alpha/cmd] Error 1

 Solution: 
      
     cd src.alpha/raster/r.cn
     textedit Gmakefile

     Delete lines:
            # %W% %G%
            BIN = $(BIN_ALPHA_CMD)

     Change line:
            $(BIN)/$(PGM): $(LIST) $(LIBES)
     to:

#7) r.agnps
    
    source code is obsolete: this code is oldish!

 Solution: 
    Use AGNPS 5.0 with GRASS-interface:
        http://www.geog.uni-hannover.de/phygeo/grass/agnps.html
    - also included in grass42/src.extra -section (src421-package)!

#8) r.bilinear
    
   > OBJ.linux/bilinear.o: In function Bilinear':
   > OBJ.linux/bilinear.o(.text+0xa17): undefined reference to 'irint'
   > make: *** [/usr/local/grass42/etc/bin/alpha/cmd/r.bilinear] Error 1
   > GISGEN failure at STEP: src.alpha/raster/r.bilinear
 
   outcell[out++] = irint (ns_fract * tmp2 + (1 - ns_fract....)

   Function "irint" does not exist in gcc!
  
   Solution:
     correct the function in this line (delete character "i"):
      old:
        irint (ns_fract * tmp2 + (1 - ns_fract....)
      new:
        (int)rint (ns_fract * tmp2 + (1 - ns_fract....)

   r.in.hdf uses the NCSA Hierarchical Data Format (HDF) library: BEFORE
   compiling this program, you must compile the library (see the README
   file in src.garden/grass.hdf for instructions on compiling the HDF
   library).

   Solution: not today.... (who needs this module at all?)
    kick it out of: src/CMD/lists/GRASS  (comment it out with #)
    change entry in: src/CMD/next_step/linux
 

#10) XGRASS

   Only with MOTIF (commercial)!
  
   Solution: ---------- (maybe lesstif etc.?)

   kick it out of: src/CMD/lists/GRASS   (comment it out with #)
   change entry in: src/CMD/next_step/linux

    > make: *** [all] Error 1

 Solution: fclose and fopen were repeated defined 
      
   comment out line 77 in the 
    src.contrib/PURDUE/d.linegraph/cmd/linegraph.c file 
     /*   FILE *fclose(), *fopen(); */

#13) d.vect.cats

 problem - compiled successfully but doesn't run correctly 

 why -  pointer error 

 Solution:  
  modify the src.contrib/CAST/d.vect.cats/plotCat.c - line 91 
        change from 
           Vect_get_area_points(P_map,a_index,Points); 
        to 
           Vect_get_area_points(&P_map,a_index,Points);

#14) problems with the ps.map command (Linux)
       1. the ps.map needs to be compiled with the -fwritable-strings flag
       2. the way is to edit the src/CMD/head/linux header file
             + add -fwritable-strings at the end of COMPILE_FLAGS line
               COMPILE_FLAGS = -O -fwritable-strings
             + cd to src.alpha/ps.map
             + simple run gmake4.2



#15) src/mapdev/v.build

  problem - compiled successfully but doesn't run correctly 

  why - GRASS codes were not cleaned up before release 

  Solution:
    comment out line 176 and 177 in src/mapdev/Vlib/level_two.c 
        fclose(map->dig_fp);
        map->dig_fp=NULL; 

    (idea from KANG from GRASS 4.1.5)

#16) src.alpha/mapdev/v.proj

  problem - compiled successfully but doesn't run correctly 
    produce lots of garbage output for files in the dig_att directory 

  why -  ????? 

  Solution:

    modify src.alpha/mapdev/v.proj/main.c - line 27 
        change from 
           ctype[1] 
        to 
           ctype[3]

#17) s.surf.tps
    src.alpha/sites/s.surf.tps

    Problem: compiling is fine, but module does not work

    Solution:
      textedit user1.c
      
      insert definition of atof() at top:

          double atof();

    (mail from J. Hovierka)

#18) src.contrib/SCS/vector/v.dump


  Problem: does not compile, ABS definition missing.

  Solution: Insert the ABS-definition: in isle_area.c

   old:
    isle_area (map, isle, totalarea)
    struct Map_info *map;
    int  isle;
    double *totalarea;

   to:
    isle_area (map, isle, totalarea)
    struct Map_info *map;
    int  isle;
    #define ABS(x)          (((x) < 0) ? -(x) : (x))
    double *totalarea;

#19) r.hydro.casc2d is obviously missing!

    Problem: There is an error in the Gmakefile.
    Solution:
      cd src.alpha/raster/r.casc2d
      textedit Gmakefile
   
      Insert linebreak in this line:
       DIR=$(BIN_ALPHA_CMD)HEADERS=all.h
      Like this:
       DIR=$(BIN_ALPHA_CMD)
       HEADERS=all.h

      And remove line:
       DIR=. 
      
#20) r.sun is obviously missing!

    Problem: There is an error in the Gmakefile.
    Solution:
      cd src.alpha/raster/r.sun
      textedit Gmakefile
       
     Uncomment (remove #):   
       DIR=$(BIN_ALPHA_CMD)

      And remove line:
       DIR=. 

#21) i.tape.spot is obviously missing!

    Problem: There is an error in the Gmakefile.
    Solution:
      cd src.alpha/imagery/i.tape.spot
      textedit Gmakefile

     Insert at beginning:
      PGM = i.tape.spot

     Change line:
       i.st: $(LIST) $(LIBES) $(VASKLIB)
     to:
       $(BIN_ALPHA_CMD)/$(PGM): $(LIST) $(LIBES) $(VASKLIB)
