[gdal-dev] ERROR 6: Failed to initialize PROJ.4 with "..."

[Chris Marsh]

Hi,

I build GDAL by specifying --with-static-proj4  on the configure command
line. This does not seem to have resolved the problem.

echo 2 49 | build-release/lib/gdal/bin/gdaltransform -s_srs EPSG:4326
> -t_srs EPSG:32632
> -11818.9526229417 5451106.95020125 0


Cheers
Chris
