[El] Trying to build gdal with ECW support on SL 6.0

Sat May 14 06:08:45 EDT 2011

Dear Micha!

Besides what you mentioned, the ECW 4.2 license is restricted to create 
software for personal use, or something nastly like that.

You fail on the -Xcompiler flag. There is a patch. This is related to your 
version of GCC and only the Ruby bindings are affected.

You can either take a look at the patch in Fedora's GDAL 1.7.3 source RPM and 
I guess ELGIS has it too.

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=240296

By the way, you can also run:

# yum-builddep some.src.rpm -- All BRs from the source RPM are installed
rpmbuild --rebuild some.src.rpm
