How to install the Linux (x86/Intel) binary code for GRASS 5.3.x EXPERIMENTAL in gzipped tar format.

Note that this binary version may not work.
Use at your own risk.

Installation:

get the file
grass5.3-cvs_arch-bin.tar.gz
get the installation script
grass5.3-cvs_arch-install.sh

where

arc is the architecture of your platform (e.g. pc-linux-gnu)

For installation, run the install script with --help option:

sh grass5.3-cvs_arch-install.sh --help
./grass5.3-cvs_arch-install.sh --help

Or without help, directly:

sh grass5.3-cvs_arch-install.sh grass5.3-cvs_arch-bin.tar.gz
./grass5.3-cvs_arch-install.sh grass5.3-cvs_arch-bin.tar.gz

Libraries

The following libraries are required:

libpq (e.g. libpq3-7.3.4-2mdk.i586.rpm)
proj (e.g. proj-4.4.7-1mdk.i586.rpm)
libproj (e.g. libproj0-4.4.7-1mdk.i586.rpm)
libgdal(e.g. libgdal0-1.1.9-2mdk.i586.rpm)

and, recommended, also:

tcl (e.g. tcl-8.3.3-21mdk.i586.rpm)
tk (e.g. tk-8.3.3-21mdk.i586.rpm)
gdal tools (e.g. gdal-1.1.9-2mdk.i586.rpm)
libfftw (must be fft2, e.g. libfftw2-2.1.5-2mdk.i586.rpm)
libgrass (e.g. libgrass5-1.0.0-1mdk.src.rpm - but only if inserted in one of above packages as dependency)

optional:

libgdal0-devel-1.1.9-2mdk.i586.rpm
libgrass5_0-devel-1.0.0-1mdk.i586.rpm
libproj0-devel-4.4.7-1mdk.i586.rpm

You can find these RPMs on www.rpmfind.net

NOTE:

In some distributions (e.g. Mandrake) the names of libraries is slightly different. Check, and if there is no file of the name:
libtk.so.0
libtcl.so.0
libpq.so.2
libgdal.1.1.so

then you should type:

su
ln -s /usr/lib/libtk.so /usr/lib/libtk.so.0
ln -s /usr/lib/libtcl.so /usr/lib/libtcl.so.0
ln -s /usr/lib/libpq.so.3 /usr/lib/libpq.so.2
ln -s /usr/lib/libgdal.1.1.so /usr/lib/libgdal.so.1
ldconfig

Instead of (or in addition to) libtk.so and libtcl.so, you might have libtk8.4.so and libtcl8.4.so. In this case, type instead:

ln -s /usr/lib/libtk8.4.so /usr/lib/libtk.so.0
ln -s /usr/lib/libtcl8.4.so /usr/lib/libtcl.so.0
ldconfig
