Hi Randy,

If it's like the ecw-src it's more dependent on the gdal library version, than the ubuntu version.

I preferred the extra effort of downloading the -src.deb and manually spreading the files about. (In the ecw-src there was only about 3 files to move anyway) This defeats the purpose of package management somewhat, but stops apt complaining about incompatible versions of things.
