Description:
The current GRASS package in community doesn't list wxpython as a dependency or optional dependency, which causes it to default to text mode (no gui). This is probably not what most package users would expect; I'd recommend adding a dependency rather than an optional dependency.

Additional info:
* version 6.4.1RC2-1

Steps to reproduce:
Remove wxpython if you have it, then install GRASS and:

grass64

Output:
Starting GRASS ...
ERROR: wxGUI requires wxPython. No module named wxversion
Error in GUI startup. If necessary, please
report this error to the GRASS developers.
Switching to text mode now.
Hit RETURN to continue...
