[gdal-dev] gdalinfo error and subsequent segfault with proj-5.0.x

[Even Rouault]

Markus,

I suspect you may link at runtime against different proj versions. How did you 
build GDAL ? I'd strongly recommend you use --with-static-proj4 (whose name is 
a bit misleading since it can actually link against a libproj.so), and then 
check with "ldd libgdal.so" that you link against a single libproj.
