Re: [Fink-beginners] GRASS Source Downloading

[Wouter B. <wou...@yu...>]

Hello,

there is a binary version of grass for macOS X that installs very easy 
with an install script. You shouldn't use fink, as they are way behind 
with their versions (like with most packages :-(. You can find the 
package on the grass page:

grass.itc.it

BTW, I think you can clean /src completely. Did it a few times to free 
disk space and never had problems.
