hi list,

Are libgeos.so and libgeos_c.so needed in building gdal and its dependency libraries?

If they are needed, where can I download the source code to build/include it in the gdal package?

I am running Linux and Solaris 9.

Shawn,

GEOS is not a required dependency of GDAL/OGR; however, a number of additional
capabilities within OGR become available when built with GEOS.  GEOS can be
found at:

  http://geos.osgeo.org/

If you don't know of a specific reason you need it, I'd be inclined to leave
it out.

Best regards,
