that is indeed one way to do it. and it actually got the make to
finally work. many thanks.
i'll be checking with red hat on monday to see if there is something
funky about libexpat libraries in 5.4.
also will be checking with the gamma software people to see if there is
something in that library that is needed or not.
many thanks to all that replied.

I am trying to compile gdal as per the instructions of the developer
of specialized remote sensing software called gamma
(http://www.gamma-rs.ch/). The platform is a Dell T410 dual Xeon
processor system with 8GB of memory, running Redhat Enterprise Linux
(RHEL 5.4 x86_64). The configure goes smoothly, but on the make I am
getting the error on the subject line and the make fails. The
configure instructions are very specific from gamma:
...
-Wl,-soname -Wl,libgdal.so.1 -o .libs/libgdal.so.1.12.4
/usr/lib/libexpat.so: could not read symbols: File in wrong format
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [libgdal.la] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/gdal-1.5.4'
make: *** [check-lib] Error 2
anybody seen this before or have a suggested fix?
Steve,
I would suggest adding --without-expat to the configure line. I'm not
what
sure is up with your /usr/lib/libexpat.so, but if you don't need it for
anything just avoid it.
Best regards,
