Re: [Ubuntu] GDAL 1.7.3

2010-11-26 Thread Alex Mandel
I'll note an easy way to test porting a package back one version of
Ubuntu is to use the Prevu tool. Here's a rough guide
https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Prevu

Thanks,
Alex

 Yes, packaging 1.7.3 is on my list. However, Karmic is no longer
 supported, so I wont build the package for it. Once the package for
 Lucid will be made.. it should very easy to rebuild it on your karmic
 machine without (or a few) modifications (IIRC).

 thanks,

 Alan

FYI, I've uploaded gdal 1.7.3 for Lucid in the PPA. If you want to rebuild it 
for karmic, you can download it here:

https://launchpad.net/~ubuntugis/+archive/ubuntugis-unstable/+packages

and you can check what are the needed changes for karmic here:

 
http://trac.osgeo.org/ubuntugis/browser/packages/gdal/karmic/trunk/debian/changelog

especially the following section: gdal (1.7.2-4~karmic1) karmic; urgency=low

Tom, 

non-LTS releases are only supported for 1 year after they are released. We 
highly recommend to only use LTS releases for your servers.

Hi Alan,

Thanks for your reply. How come Karmic isn't supported any more? I was
hoping to put off upgrading my processing server to 10.04 untill the New
Year, but there are fixes in GDAL 1.7.3 from bugs that I've submitted. I
guess I can try using the karmic package untill then.

Thanks,

Tom

[Ubuntu] GDAL 1.7.3

2010-11-26 Thread Tom Holderness
Hi,

I was just wondering if there are any plans to build GDAL 1.7.3 soon
(specifically for Karmic in my case), If someone tells me what's involved,
I'd be happy to join the team and try building myself.

Many thanks,

Tom
