Hmm sounds like it might perhaps be a simple problem with finding the
shared libraries---you could try adding /usr/local/lib (if that's where
you installed the support stuff) to /etc/ld.so.conf and running
ldconfig, or adding /usr/local/lib to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment
variable.
Or add the -text command-line switch to the GRASS start-up command so it
doesn't try loading the GUI stuff at all.
But.. this isn't the GRASS list so I won't elaborate and cause undue
traffic. It took me several months to sort out all the problems and get
GRASS to compile completely when I first started using it 3-4 years ago
so up and running in 8 minutes is good going!
