[gdal-dev] Re: gdal segmentation fault when reading NetCDF grid files

[Roger André]

Sorry, should have trolled the Web first.  I see now that this is nothing
new, and is caused by a conflict between libnetcdf and libhdf4/5.  I've
resolved this by doing the following:

1. Removing all hdf libs from my system:
$ sudo apt-get remove libhdf4g libhdf4g-dev libhdf5-serial-1.6.5-0
libhdf5-serial-dev

2. Doing a "sudo make clean" in my /usr/local/gdal dir

3. Doing a new configure with "--with-hdf4=no --with-hdf5=no", then running
make.

Seems to work now,

Thanks.
