[gdal-dev] HDF support under Gentoo/Funtoo

[Sebastian Walter]

Hi Nikos,

The gentoo ebuild is somehow limited in terms of driver choices in my
opinion (especially if you have additional commercial licenses to
include as, e.g. Kakadu or ECW). What I do is to compile a custom gdal
build and install it to /usr/local. For the current stable 1.11, you
would emerge sci-libs/hdf first, and then configure the downloaded
package like this:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-python

(both HDF libs are found automatically by configure).

Cheers, Sebastian
