Comment (by springmeyer):
A reference for folks working around this error, here is a workaround for
the lack of packaging of the datum files that maintains to use of debian
packages:
Thanks rcoup!
{{{
# note the lack of a complete set of proj files...
$ ls /usr/share/proj/
epsg esri.extra nad27 nad.lst proj_def.dat
esri GL27 nad83 other.extra world
# re build the proj pkg after manually download the data files..
apt-get install fakeroot build-essential debhelper
cd ~/src
apt-get source proj
wget http://download.osgeo.org/proj/proj-datumgrid-1.4.tar.gz
cd proj-4.6.0/nad/
