[gdal-dev] map info and projections from GeoTIFF file to create ENVI header

I have the 2.0.1 version:
C:\warmerda\bld\bin>gdalinfo --version
GDAL 2.0.1, released 2015/09/15

I will check the history of the file I have. Maybe it is modified. I will also download the same file from earthexplorer and try my routines on it. 
Thanks for the suggestions. I appreciate.

What is your gdal version? Maybe the Landsat geotiff was modified from some software?

Best regards,
