Matthieu,

I tried gdalinfo on the files and it worked fine.  Your Python looked fine.

The error messages seem to indicate an inappropriate mixture of versions.
Presumably recent Python bindings that are trying to pick up an older
version of GDAL lacking some modern entry points.  Does the same configuration
work fine with larger TIFF files?

Best regards,
