Bug #91636 for Geo-GDAL: Don't use gdal-config --dep-libs

Tue Dec 24 06:09:38 2013 SREZIC [...] cpan.org - Ticket created

Subject:

Don't use gdal-config --dep-libs

On Debian wheezy systems, the output of `gdal-config --dep-libs` is: -larmadillo -lproj -lpoppler -lfreexl -L/usr/lib -lgeos_c -L/usr/lib -lepsilon -lodbc -lodbcinst -lkmlengine -lkmldom -lkmlbase -lkmlconvenience -lminizip -luriparser -lexpat -lxerces-c -lpthread -ljasper -lnetcdf -lhdf5 -lmfhdfalt -ldfalt -logdi -lgif -ljpeg -lpng -L/usr/lib -lpq -llzma -lz -lpthread -lm -lrt -ldl -ldapclient -ldapserver -ldap -L/usr/lib -lspatialite -lsqlite3 -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -lcurl -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -lmysqlclient -lpthread -lm -lrt -ldl Most of these libraries are not installed. Probably it's better to use `gdal-config --libs` instead. Also, I think gdal-config should not be parsed, but called with the --version, --libs, and --cflags options. Regards, Slaven

Here's a patch: http://cpan.cpantesters.org/authors/id/S/SR/SREZIC/patches/Geo-GDAL-1.90-RT91636.patch It replaces the parsing of gdal-config by direct calls of gdal-config, and uses the --libs output instead of the --dep-libs output. With this change I am able to compile and install Geo-GDAL on Debian/wheezy. Regards, Slaven

Thanks, The thing is that I wanted to be able to build the Perl bindings also against non-installed GDAL. Also, typically on a Windows (mingw) system the gdal-config is not executable (can't check now and I haven't build on one in a long time). I'll think about this. Ari
