Hey, William: Cool -i have installed GDAL Complete 1.8, and now QGIS 1.7 runs apparently OK.
Am a bit concerned (based on the install warning, and what i have read here in the thread about backward compatibility) that i may be rendering project files unusable by colleagues (esp. one i work closely with, a Windows guy) still on 1.6... But will cross that bridge if/when i i come to it, by urging one & all to updgrade. About GRASS: looks like i have 6.4 installed, and upgrade to 6.4.1 is not required (obviously), but i will now proceed to upgrade that one too (seeing as how you've been right about everything else so far :) Thanks, William! /wl On Aug 3, 2011, at 2:41 PM, William Kyngesburye wrote: > You probably had QGIS 1.6.0-1, which used GDAL 1.7.
