[GRASSLIST:9988] Re: configure: error: *** Unable to locate GDAL library.

[Rochelle MIranda]

Hello Hamish
I ran both the commands and these are the location of
gdal-config and libgdal.


locate gdal-config

/usr/local/bin/gdal-config

locate libgdal

/usr/lib/libgdal.1.1.so
/usr/local/lib/libgdal.so.1
/usr/local/lib/libgdal.so.1.4.1
/usr/local/lib/libgdal.la
/usr/local/lib/libgdal.a
/usr/local/lib/libgdal.1.1.so
