Is this "someone" aware of the problem? Will "someone" fix
this problem soon and rebuild the package? Knowing this is important
for ubuntu users to decide whether upgrading to karmic or not.

Yes, it forces Ubuntu to follow those rules. Though from a technical
standpoint QGIS works fine with 1.6 and 1.6 is actually the preferred
due to some bugs in 1.5. So this whole issue comes down to someone
forgetting to change the rules in the package.

Does the dependency between gdal 1.5.0 and qgis suggest that qgis
ubuntugis/unstable binary was built against gdal 1.5.0?
(meaning I cant install qgis without gdal 1.5.0 getting installed, and
cant remove gdal 1.5.0 without removing qgis).
Just trying to broaden my knowledge of the software relationships...
Thanks,

Great, thanks. This may only be on the 64bit platform, as I did the
same update this morning on a Karmic 32bit system, and the MRSID still
works.
Originally I installed karmic 64bit, then updated all. Then I added
the qgis/stable and ubuntugis/unstable, and wound up with a qgis
installation that wouldnt work with mr sid. (the gdal1.5.0 issue
perhaps?)
When I took out the qgis/stable, and only used ubuntugis/unstable, I
did get a qgis that could use SIDs. It looks like last night there
was an update to the ubuntugis? and when i updated/upgraded, then the
mrsid didnt work on Karmic 64bit.
Interestingly, I upgraded on Karmic qgis and grass (same versions
though?) this morning also on karmic 32bit, and mrsid still worked.
Much thanks,
Mark

That to me sounds like you've got the QGIS repos and the UbuntuGIS
repos. UbuntuGIS should be pulling 1.6.x I will double check with them,
since I do recall in some recent past versions there being an error in
the dependency list that still had 1.5 for QGIS.

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?
Thanks,
Mark

I had a working QGIS and Mr SID, but just did an update to Karmic

I am using this site to install
http://n2.nabble.com/Directions-to-get-mrsid-support-in-GQIS-and-other-packages-using-gdal-on-Ubuntu-td3169342.html
Everything seems fine with the creation of gdal_MrSID.so.
gdal_GRASS.so, gdal_MrSID.so and ogr_GRASS.so are all in the
/usr/lib/gdal16plugins directory. nothing is in the
/usr/lib/gdal15plugins directory.
I notice that libgdal1.5 gets installed from the ubuntu repo, while
additionally libgdal1.6 gets installed from the ubuntugis directory.
(?)
gdalinfo --formats lists MR SID as a recognized format, but QGIS
doesnt have it in the list nor recognizes it as GDAL raster.
Thanks,
Mark
Which gdalinfo are you using. Good chance you installed it for libgdal
1.5 instead of 1.6. Try removing all the 1.5 stuff and redo the MRSID
install.
