I guess my worry was if someone uses the FWTools libs to link against. 1.7.0 had that serious bug for writing HFA files:
*ALERT: The GDAL/OGR 1.7.0 release has been discovered to have a serious bug which results in all Erdas Imagine files (HFA driver) being generated in a way that is unreadable by non-GDAL software. Due to this bug, the GDAL/OGR project has retracted the 1.7.0 release, and has issued it's replacement with the 1.7.1 bug fix release. See http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/3382for details. *If it was worth retracting the release and pushing 1.7.1 out, maybe we shouldn't have it available in binary form either. Maybe I am missing something. kss # ============================ Kyle Shannon Physical Science Technician RMRS Fire Sciences Lab Fire, Fuels & Smoke - RWU 4405 5775 Highway 10 W.
