[Qgis-user] [Ubuntu] MrSID for QGIS 1.8 in Ubuntu Precise

[Agustin Lobo]

Justin,
I also have a copy of Geo_DSDK-7.0.0.2167 but I get the following error after
sudo gdal-mrsid-build $HOME/Geo_DSDK-7.0.0.2167
configure: error: libgeotiff is required to build GDAL MrSID driver

while libgeotiff is actually installed.
This error has been reported a long time ago:
http://trac.osgeo.org/ubuntugis/ticket/21

How where you able to go around this problem?

Thanks,

Agus
