Yes grass works fine in sid.

In my student config (debian lenny) the file /etc/ld.so.conf.d/grass.conf
is missing. Now i add it, reboot and all is fine with grass.
I don't know why this file is missing ...

echo "/usr/lib/grass64/lib" > /etc/ld.so.conf.d/grass.conf
and reboot

Thank you Francesco,
