  • Subject changed from SAGA support broken for SAG LTR version to SAGA support broken for SAGA LTR version

To obtain the list of options to change, just download both interface descriptions from the wiki:

https://sourceforge.net/p/saga-gis/wiki/Changelog%202.3.0/attachment/saga_cmd_interface_v2_3_0.txt

Then do a diff between both files and pipe the result into a changes.txt:

make some example, or better a complete list so we can fix them. Anyway the original description and title are now not anymore appropriate. SAGA ltr is supported on all platforms, and if there are specific modules not working then single tickets should be opened for each one (and this ticket closed).

#6 Updated by Paolo Cavallini almost 7 years ago

Checking modules one by one is an enormous amount of work, done already over and over. I think we have to find a better solution here.
Thanks for your feedback.

Is SAGA LTR supported and working on Debian Sid and qgis 2.18.9 in general (beside the modules that needs file descriptions updates/changes)?

#8 Updated by Paolo Cavallini almost 7 years ago

Yes.

#9 Updated by Giovanni Manghi almost 7 years ago

  • Status changed from Feedback to Closed
  • Resolution set to fixed/implemented

Yes.

if yes then this ticket can be closed (there is also already a ticket about SAGA/GRASS issues on master).

If/when a SAGA LTR module is found to be not working then file a single ticket about it and assign it to me. A revision of SAGA ltr modules is planned anyway in time for QGIS 2.18 when it will become LTR.
