Re: [DebianGIS] Re: gdal
Are we certian that QGIS relies on the C++ library? We should confirm this before we worry about packaging it.
I am not famillair with QGIS so I will ask the QGIS list and post the response here.

Ouch. :/
We should avoid breaking qgis every time a new gdal library is
uploaded. It will happen if qgis uses the C++ API and the gdal C++
API changes on every release. :/

Not sure. At the moment it is libgdal1c2a, and the previous ones were
libgdal1c2 and libgdal1c2a? I guess libgdal2 if the API is
incompatible with libgdal1c2a, but am not really uptodate with the
library issues.
