When I wanted to edit a shapefile in GRASS I got this message:

Unable to start wxGUI vector digitizer. Do you want to start TCL/TK digitizer (v.digit) instead?

Details: No module named grass6_wxvdigit

Therefore, as suggested in this link: http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/wxpython-gui-and-v-digit-td3019439.html and https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass/trunk/gui/wxpython/README - 6. VECTOR DIGITIZER I have been trying to compile/install vdigit component. I could install GRASS with C++ (--with-cxx), Python (--with-python) and wxWidgets (--with-wxwidgets) support. But in the next step when I change to the directory "cd gui/wxpython/vdigit" and run make I get the following error:

..............
cats.cpp:456: error: ‘Vect_rewrite_line’ was not declared in this scope

cats.cpp:461: error: ‘G_debug’ was not declared in this scope
cats.cpp:467: error: ‘Vect_destroy_line_struct’ was not declared in this scope
cats.cpp:468: error: ‘Vect_destroy_cats_struct’ was not declared in this scope

error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
make: *** [OBJ.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/_grass6_wxvdigit.so] Error 1

I use Ubuntu 10.04 LTS with GRASS 6.4.1svn. I tried installing python-dev, python2.6-dev packages as suggested in many forums but the error continued to appear.

Answer from the GRASS mailing list:

This component has been replaced by Python'ized version in GRASS 6.5+. It will be included in 6.4.2. No more need to use a C++ compiler.
