Mapserver compile error on Ubuntu

[Matthew Perry]

Frank,

  There is no way for Mapserver to differentiate between coexisting
versions of gdal? This is disappointing since removing the /usr
version will mean removing a whole stack of software that depends on
it then recompiling them all from scratch. Is there no other option?
