    I tried to run the code of ccc-gisstemp-0.4.1 – as root under Linux (Suse Linux 10.2 – kernel (Linux ibk-node14 2.6.18.2-34-default #1 SMP Mon Nov 27 11:46:27 UTC 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
    ) and python 2.5

    However it produced an error:

    Now: what did I do wrong?

    Er, I was going to say, this is Issue 65 again, but it’s not quite, I think.

    Jorge, can you join the mailing list (I think you’ve done that already) and post this again, and we can discuss where to go from there, if you have a little time to spare?

    A good first step would be to use the most recent version from SVN.

    I am planning a new release.
