continuing with my woes while trying to install grass, I've managed to install gdal but when I try and compile grass, I get this message:<br><br>------------------<br>checking for jpeg_start_compress in -ljpeg... yes<br>
checking whether to use GDAL... yes<br>yes<br>checking for gdal-config... no<br>configure: error: *** couldn't find gdal-config<br>------------------<br><br>the options that I've used for the compilation are:<br><br>
a) --with-proj-includes<br>b) --with-proj-libs<br>c) --with-proj-share<br>d) --with-gdal<br><br>I'm not sure if something is being missed out. If you are aware of anything else that might have gone wrong, then let me know. I use --with-gdal to point to the correct gdal-config file but I still get the message "couldn't find gdal-config".<br>
