[Gdal-dev] error in csharp bindings for ogr/gdal

[Matthew Perry]

Hey folks,

 Checking out the latest cvs head, I'm having troubles getting the
csharp bindings working. I'm using the Mono 1.2.2.1_1 installer on
linux.

I ran the following steps OK:
make veryclean
make interface
make

But 'make test' fails with this error:

LC_ALL=C mono createdata.exe Data pointlayer

make: *** [test] Error 1

Indeed "libogrcsharp.la" does not exist nor do the other *.la files
refered to in the dll config files.

Any ideas?
