Frank,

thanks, summary is back but not the metadata (I did make distclean):

ogrinfo /tmp/pollo_pat.shp
INFO: Open of `/tmp/pollo_pat.shp'
using driver `ESRI Shapefile' successful.
1: pollo_pat (Point)

ogrinfo -so /tmp/pollo_pat.shp
INFO: Open of `/tmp/pollo_pat.shp'

1: pollo_pat (Point)


ogrinfo -summary /tmp/pollo_pat.shp
INFO: Open of `/tmp/pollo_pat.shp'
using driver `ESRI Shapefile' successful.
1: pollo_pat (Point)

ls -la /tmp/pollo_pat.prj
-rw-------  1 neteler ssi 436 Feb 28 13:27 /tmp/pollo_pat.prj

In earlier days (end of last year?) also the projection
was shown which is quite important (for me).

Thanks
