[El] RHEL5: Problem with Qgis 1.6.0 and some python-dependant plugins

[Volker Fröhlich]

I'm planning to put QGIS into EPEL, but haven't done so, since we're missing 
Grass there. Sadly the maintainer disappeared several months ago. Maybe I'll 
build one without Grass support for 1.7. I might have to take the ownership of 
GDAL as well, but I don't have a lot of time and there are still several 
glitches in the GDAL packages.
