Agus,

There should be no conflict with libjpeg.dll as we name our dll
jpeg_osgeo.dll to avoid conflicts.  Likewise it does not appear we
conflict with libpng.dll as we have libpng-3.dll, libpng12-0.dll and
png_osgeo.dll (why so many versions!)

I am not familiar with libpcd.dll, but it isn't obvious that there
is any conflict with it either.

I'm not too sure what is up here.  Normally if you install the
GRASS gdal plugin I would expect the installer to take care of installing
all the required components.

Do you have SDE installed on your system?   This plugin only works if
you have otherwise installed additional SDE components that we cannot
distribute.  A similar pattern applies for oracle, and ecw.

I believe this was written by Jurgen, but if it was a change in the
qgis package postinstall scripts you would not need a new installer.
You would just need to let the installer upgrade to the latest package
version.
