Description

When I compile QGIS I get this error:

CMake Error at src/plugins/grass/CMakeLists.txt:2 (SUBDIRS):
   subdirs Incorrect SUBDIRS command.  Directory: modules-6.5 does not exists.

With a little research, I notice that the grass plugin module directory has been reorganized. I see that the changes make at [http://trac.osgeo.org/qgis/changeset?new=trunk%2Fqgis%2Fsrc%2Fplugins%2Fgrass%2FCMakeLists.txt%4010908&old=trunk%2Fqgis%2Fsrc%2Fplugins%2Fgrass%2FCMakeLists.txt%4010893] is not compatible with grass svn.

As a temporarily fixed, I did this:

ln -s /home/bobm/src/gis/qgis_svn/build/modules-6.4 /home/bobm/src/gis/qgis_svn/build/modules-6.5

I'm guessing that there are differences between the modules in GRASS 6.4 vs GRASS svn, so this is not an optimal solution.

Could you list me the modules that don't work with grass-6.5 (and maybe 7.0) so I will create the right directories with right module definitions in them?

I've cc'd since there might be some interest in this bug.

#3 Updated by Maciej Sieczka - about 14 years ago

Still the case as of HEAD :

CMake Error at src/plugins/grass/CMakeLists.txt:8 (MESSAGE):
  Your GRASS version is not supported
  (/home/zxc/src/straight/qgis-trunk/src/plugins/grass/modules-6.5 is not
  found).

CMake Error at src/plugins/grass/CMakeLists.txt:11 (MESSAGE):
  Your GRASS version is not supported
  (/home/zxc/src/straight/qgis-trunk/src/plugins/grass/modules-6.5 is not a
  Directory).

CMake Error at src/plugins/grass/CMakeLists.txt:14 (SUBDIRS):
  subdirs Incorrect SUBDIRS command.  Directory: modules-6.5 does not exists.

Symlink works for the compilation.

#4 Updated by Redmine Admin almost 14 years ago

Because current modules-x.x system requires duplication of data and in general is not very flexible, I would suggest to replace it with additional attributes in qgm config files for min/max version of GRASS an option is valid for, for example:

<option key="map" until="6.0">
<option key="vectormap" since="6.1" until="6.3">
<option key="vector" since="6.4">

Similarly for whole modules.

#5 Updated by Markus Neteler almost 13 years ago

In my opinion the support for GRASS 6.3 can be dropped.

GRASS versions are supported by optional attributes in qgm and qgc files and all modules were upgraded for GRASS 6.4 and GRASS 7.0 in QGIS 2.12.
