M hm. One item of note, is that the Linux version of the SDK is for 32-bit only, and will not work in 64-bit environments. Most sad. LizardTech doesn't even have immediate plans for the next version, only the idea that it will support 64-bit. Sigh.


I suspect that the GDAL list would be a more appropriate place to inquire about GDAL support.

Indeed. I can provide a few pointers right here, though, before you take it to the other list. :)

1. First you need to install the MrSID SDk, from LizardTech's downloads area. After that, when you run configure, use --help and look for the --with-mrsid option.

2. I have found the runtime performance of wavelet-compressed images (ECW, JPEG2000, MrSID) to be unacceptable for my needs. Your mileage may vary, but you may want to save yourself some trouble by fetching mrsiddecode and extracting it to TIFFs.
