[GRASSLIST:3130] r.in.gdal failing

[Philipp Molzer]

Hi,
Along with others that I've seen posting, I have been unable to get 
r.in.gdal in grass 5.0.3 to work.
I am getting the  "ERROR 4: <any filename> not recognised as a supported 
file format. " on any raster I try to import, including ones which I 
have before sucessfully imported in grass 5.0.1.

I built gdal-1.2.0b libs from source  with
 ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-cfitsio --with-hdf4 
--with-jasper --with-xerces --without-netcdf
which also built and installed fine.

 I configured the source build for grass with
CFLAGS="-mcpu=k6 -O3 -Wall" LDFLAGS="-s" ./configure 
--prefix=/usr/local/grass5.0.3 --with-dbm 
--with-dbm-includes=/usr/include/gdbm --with-dbm-libs=/usr/lib 
--with-gdal=/usr/local/bin/gdal-config
It built and installed without errors.


For example:
I try to import a DEM I got from the EROS seamless server.  It is in the 
form of an ArcGrid, which is a set of files.
r.in.gdal input=W001001X.ADF output=tile1
ERROR 4: `W001001X.ADF' not recognised as a supported file format.

but this works:
gdalinfo W001001X.ADF

I hope someone help me to debug r.in.gdal and to get it working.
