Petr,

Did you try using both GDAL Python bindings and rasterio/fiona binary 
wheels within the same Python process on Linux? I would expect that to 
crash badly, possibly depending on the order you import them. Probably 
that some big warning in your repository would be needed to discourage 
users from doing that.

As you use vcpkg, perhaps using static builds could help, but I'm 
thinking that we are probably out of luck on the GDAL Python side, as we 
have several python modules (osgeo.gdal, osgeo.org), so that would cause 
each of them to statically link against libgdal, which wouldn't be a 
good idea, since they wouldn't share the same global state... I guess 
that for static linking to work, we'd need a single Python module, but 
that would be too involved. So probably the most sane solution would be 
to have a dynamic library libgdal.so that statically links its 
dependencies, but with all GDAL public symbols renamed. Quite an 
adventure...
