[DebianGIS] GRASS not building on sparc, remove --with-glw from ./configure line
Hi,
I notice the grass package is held up in unstable[1] as it is not up to
date on sparc[2]. The problem appears to be some trouble with finding
the GLw includes during the ./configure step.

[2] http://buildd.debian.org/build.php?arch=sparc&pkg=grass&ver=6.2.2-1
No idea why that might be. However there is no need to compile with GLw
support, as GLw is not needed by any [activated] modules[3]. So --with-glw
can be safely removed from the ./configure line without affecting
functionality.

I do not have access to the DebianGIS SVN to make the change myself.
debian/rules:
--with-motif \
--with-readline \
--with-nls \
- --with-glw \
--with-odbc \
--with-sqlite \
The OpenGL libraries listed in build-depends are probably still required
for NVIZ so should remain in the control file. (?)
Also, what is the policy of backporting minor bugfixes? 6.2.2 shipped
with a bug in the scripts/d.slide.show/d.slide.show shell script that
renders the module unusable. The patch[4] is just removes the "--quiet"
command line parameters.
