See how a file is or is not found

[PaulWessel]

Added more DBG statements in gntlib_getuserpath and gmt_getdatapath to track why GMT fails to find a particular file we know should be there.

[PaulWessel]

Try this with -Vd.

When I try to run it in the debugger the first system call errors because it doesn't know "gmt"???
Is path being reset somewhere?

@seisman Can you run the anim script with GMT from my Win installer?

[seisman]

@joa-quim Where is your Win installer? Do you mean GMT-6.0.0rc2?

[joa-quim]

Yes

[seisman]

The animation tests are known to fail on Windows with GMT 6.0.0rc2. PR #1124 addressed the issue and was merged two days ago.

[joa-quim]

OK, please try this one. Built today and has ffmpeg too.
http:https://w3.ualg.pt/~jluis/mirone/gmt-6.0.0_2019.07.10-win64.exe

[seisman]

I only tested anim01. Your Win installer works for me.

I tried:

1. Put the script in C:/Users/seisman/Desktop/anim01 and ran it in git bash
2. Put the script in C:/v/anim01 and ran it in git bash
3. Put the script in C:/v/anim01 and run it in Windows cmd with bash anim01.sh

[joa-quim]

Now this. I found that when run from the debugger it failed the system calls because it did not know what "gmt" is. But with "gmt.exe" it works. So I made a symbolic link gmt.exe <-> gmt and now run from the debugger it WORKS (creates the movie).

... more tests

It's the fck MinGW that I have installed. I also have WinGit bash and if I use it instead of the other one that it also works. The other one wants the executables to exist without the .exe extension (because the .sh say "gmt", not "gmt.exe"). This is bloody nuts.

[PaulWessel]

Yes, I was concerned that some of these problems are related to your particular setup - which is why it is nice to run those test in the CI and if they pass there we are probably doing the right thing. Maybe one of you can OK this PR - it only adds some debug print statements.
