gdalinfo --version returns GDAL 1.6.2 if I do 'sudo apt-get remove gdal1-1.5.0' it wants to remove all this: The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: proj libgdal1-1.6.0-grass Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them. The following packages will be REMOVED: libgdal1-1.5.0 libqgis1.3.0 python-qgis python-qgis-common qgis qgis-common qgis-plugin-grass qgis-plugin-grass-common
And if I 'apt-get install qgis', it wants to put gdal 1.5.0 back. Is there something with the ubuntugis/unstable repo perhaps?
