<p>Robert,</p>
<p>If you want to use ready-made binaries, then using Conda
gdal-master builds might be the easiest way for all major
platforms: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://gdal.org/download.html#gdal-master-conda-builds">https://gdal.org/download.html#gdal-master-conda-builds</a>
. They track gdal master, but that's more or less the same as
3.9.0beta1 right now.</p>
<p>Otherwise if you want to build from source, you can take
inspiration from the build recipe we use for continuous
integration:<br>

<p>(you don't necessarily need all the dependencies)</p>
<p>And as I mentioned, Docker images are building. Should be ready
by tomorrow.<br>

<br>
I've prepared a beta1 of GDAL 3.9.0 to get feedback from early
testers.<br>
<br>
The NEWS file is here:<br>
<br>
<a
href="https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/blob/v3.9.0beta1/NEWS.md"

<br>
For packagers, <br>
<a

rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true"
class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://gdal.org/development/rfc/rfc96_deferred_plugin_loading.html</a>
may <br>
make it more attractive to build some drivers that typically
have heavy <br>
dependencies as plugins, installable in separate packages, due
to the <br>
load time penalty having being improved. It is let to the
appreciation <br>
of packagers to decide which drivers are worth building as
plugins <br>
installable in a separate package.<br>
You may also pass CMake options <br>
([GDAL/OGR]_DRIVER_<driver_name>_PLUGIN_INSTALLATION_MESSAGE=xxx)
so <br>
user get a hint of which package they need to install when
GDAL detects <br>
that a file may be opened by a plugin which is not available
on the file <br>
system but known to have been built as a plugin. Cf <br>
<a
href="https://gdal.org/development/building_from_source.html#deferred-loaded-plugins"
rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true"
class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://gdal.org/development/building_from_source.html#deferred-loaded-plugins</a>
<br>
for more details.<br>
<br>
For end-users, the following utilities have been updated to
use a new <br>
argument parsing framework: gdaladdo, gdalinfo,
gdal_translate, <br>
gdalwarp, gdal_grid, gdal_viewshed, gdalbuildvrt, nearblack,
ogrinfo, <br>
ogr2ogr, sozip.<br>
This helps detecting errors such as specifying twice an
argument that <br>
should be specified once (where generally the last instance
was the one <br>
used). While we have tried to retain backwards compatibility
for nominal <br>
use cases, obviously if you have scripts that accidentally
specify an <br>
argument several times whereas it should be specified at most
once, they <br>
will have to be corrected.<br>
<br>
Docker images with 3.9.0beta1 are currently cooking.<br>
<br>
master is now marked as 3.10.0dev, and the release/3.9 branch
has been <br>
created. All bugfixes for 3.9 should be backported into it.<br>
