David, If you just need reading uncompressed or JPEG compressed NITF, you don't have to bother with MrSID or ECW. Those formats are totally unrelated. Except if you want to read JPEG2000 compressed NITF files, in which case you need to have a GDAL build with a JPEG2000 capable driver (Kakadu, MrSID or ECW).
See http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/BuildHints that has some information specific to how building with those drivers. Best reagards, Even > All: > Sorry for the newbie question.
