You need to install the development package of PROJ (i.e.
proj-devel RPM or deb).

Hello,

I have successfully installed PROJ.4, but the problem still persists. I'm
trying to compile Grass Version 6.0.2 (From Source Code) on Redhat 8, it
throws the following errors:

    "checking for proj_api.h...no"
   Configure:error: ***Unable to locate External PROJ.4 includes.

Also let me know is GDAL is a compulsory requirement.

Is Grass compatible with Redhat 8, as per the Website it compatible with
Linux but is there any version conflict.

Pl. reply.


Thanks & Regards

Find DIR where your proj_api.h is located, use --with-proj-includes= at
configure to point at it.

It isn't. But using Grass without GDAL/OGR hampers it's import/export
functionality seriously (eg. no reading/writing shapefiles, geotiffs, arcgrid,
dozens of other).

One more thing - please use Grass users list for user support if possible.
Grass RT is for bug and wish tracking. Don't hesitate to use it though if you
spot a possible bug or have an idea for enhacement.

Good luck.

Closing request.

Secod, last thing more :) - regarding what Grass requires and likes to have,
read http://grass.itc.it/grass60/source/REQUIREMENTS.html as Hamish told you.
