I have searched for updated instructions on how to compile MrSID support
into GDAL. Please forgive me, if this question shouldn't be posted on
this mailing list; however, I seem to be continuously running in circles
pointing to the same documents which are at
http://trac.osgeo.org/ubuntugis/wiki/TutorialMrSid and
http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/MrSID. Each of these appear to be
several years old and do not match the current packages in Ubuntu. I
posted this question at
http://askubuntu.com/questions/512390/mrsid-support-for-qgis-2-4-in-ubuntu-14-04
initially and have worked through some of my issues there.
I am hoping someone here can help me fill in the gaps that I am missing.
Specifically the gaps seem to be:
1. How do I compile only the mrsid and mrsid_lidar plugins for GDAL
without having to rebuild the whole package?
2. If I must rebuild the whole package, is there a way I can pull the
configuration from the stock UbuntuGIS packages to make sure I do not
leave out any necessary configuration settings?
3. I think this was a red herring when I tried installing the
libgdal-dev packages, but since I am running MariaDB instead of MySQL,
are there some special configuration options that I need to make sure to
include while building GDAL?
I appreciate all of the help you can provide me and will make sure to
document my solution on the AskUbuntu thread above so that hopefully
others searching for this can find the updated instructions there.
Thanks,
Reese
