Hi List,

I'm trying to get gdal working on OS X 10.6. I'm have tried a variety of ways with varying success.

I installed GDAL 1.7 Complete from http://www.kyngchaos.com/software:frameworks

If I go to /Library/Frameworks/GDAL.framework/unix/bin I can seem to run the unix binaries. For example, "./gdal_info" provides usage instructions. I cannot run the Python programs. If I launch my Python and type "from osgeo import gdal" it doesn't work because I run the EPD Python not the OS X default. That command *does* work, and the Python binaries do run (or at least print usage info) if I comment out the EPD section in my .bash_profile and run using the system Python.

Any ideas how to run GDAL with EPD?

If the EPD Python you have installed is the same major version as the system (2.6), this should work: try copying the gdal path file from /Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/gdal.pth to the user site-packages folder of the EPD python.

My GDAL python binaries are built for Python 2.6, and may (probably?) not work on Python 2.5 or 2.7. Definitely (?) not Python 3.


Yup, this works for me:

cp /Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/gdal.pth /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/lib/python2.6/site-packages/

Thanks,

  -k.
