Nice summary, Jose ;) Thx!
Just one remark from my side: The packages linked against GDAL 1.8 are always a higher version number, than the ones linked against GDAL 1.6. With that, changing from GDAL 1.6 to 1.8 is an "update" and the other way round a "downgrade". This way, adding the GDAL 1.8 repos, QLGT automagically gets upgraded with system update, too ...
