[gdal-dev] Error building Python bindings - GDALCreateDriver was not declared in this scope

[Nick Cummins]

Hi,



I'm trying to build GDAL bindings for Python 3. I have the gdal-2.2.2-1 package installed from the Arch Linux official repositories, which does contain bindings for Python 2.7.



PYTHONPATH=/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/osgeo
python2

>>> from osgeo import gdal

>>> exit()



python3

>>> from osgeo import gdal

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'osgeo'



But when I try to build the bindings for Python 3myself (have tried using the python-gdal package from Arch's AUR, building it manually, and using easy_install GDAL), I get the following error:

Any ideas? Thanks.
