hallo,
try to locate libdal.so

    locate libdal.so

(by me: 
    jachym at trava:~$ locate libgdal.so
    /usr/lib/libgdal.so
    /usr/lib/libgdal.so.1
    /usr/lib/libgdal.so.1.6.0
    /usr/src/gis/grass/gdal-1.2.3/.libs/libgdal.so
    /usr/src/gis/grass/gdal-1.2.3/.libs/libgdal.so.1
    /usr/src/gis/grass/gdal-1.2.3/.libs/libgdal.so.1.4.1
    jachym at trava:~$
)

it it founds somethin similar (libgdal.so.1.6.0), you have to link it - create
the symbolic link

    ln -s /usr/lib/libgdal.so.1.6.0 /usr/lib/libgdal.so.1
