[gdal-dev] self-compiled gdal linking to old already-remove proj libs

[Jeff McKenna]

Hi Andreas,

I have been in your exact situation before.  What's happening is that a 
GDAL dependency lib is still pointing to the old libproj version. 
Please check:

  ldd /usr/local/lib/libgdal.so | grep geotiff

     and then ldd to the exact path of the geotiff lib, and look at 
which libproj is linked to

and do the same for spatialite:

   ldd /usr/local/lib/libgdal.so | grep spatialite

      and then ldd to the exact path of the spatialite lib, and look at 
which libproj is linked to

I bet that is what happening in your case also.  If I am correct, then 
you have to recompile those libraries and point to PROJ in /usr/local/

Cheers from across the ocean.

-jeff
