I agree.
Are there any packages beside gdal for which people have an interest
in an updated version?
I don't know whether we should only bump gdal or try importing most of
the packages we have in xenial right now.
Kind Regards,
Johan

Just to be on the safe side, I would just try to rebuild all current
packages on top of recent gdal.
If issues arise, we can do more upgrades.

Note that rebuilding might not be enough. While recompilation might work fine, some
packages might not be completely compatible with GDAL 2.2 without adjustements at source
code level (they should not crash normally, but might have not expected behaviour)
See

Particularly the RFC 67 changes have required changes at least in QGIS, Fiona and perhaps r-
gdal or something related to it (can't remember exactly)

We can definitely upgrade those packages then.<br>
