Dears, I guess the message title is explicit enough ?
BTW, I have downloaded the SDK 9.1.0 from Imtech. The ReadMe says:
"INSTALLATION:
No specific installation is required to use the MrSID SDK beyond
copying the SDK contents to your local machine.
After installing, we suggest building and running the example program
to assure correct installation and behaviour."
But copying the SDK download (unpacked) somewhere on my disk obviously
is not enough and I am lost when it comes to "building" etc.
Thanks,

As far as I know, there is no way, but building your own gdal with mrsid
support und Linux. The instructions can be found somewhere in the
qgis-maze, but I don't how up-to-date they are.
I tried once, but as the instructions were not really idiot-proof and I
prefer to use repositories, and as there was no clear instruction to be
found how to deal with incompatibilities, I gave up so far.
I think the masterbrains just compile everything, and the stupid masses
use a virtual Windows machine to transform to geoTIFF (like me).
There was an article mentioned in the list how to produce quite small
geoTIFF some weeks ago:

That's all I can tell
