[postgis-users] GDAL problems (Kyngesbury GDAL)

[William Kyngesburye]

Looks like something wrong with readline.  The python.org python used in your virtual environment has its own readline library, while something else is loading libedit (a repalcement readline) from the system.  Maybe there's confusion about which to use, or something is wrong with readline.

It seems to be assuming that the framework is a 'nix lib/include structure, but really the include dir is named "Headers".  Odd that it uses supposedly gdal-config, but doesn't get the -cflags from it that have the correct include dir.

I am using William Kyngesbury's GDAL 1.10 for OS X, and I'm running into crazy errors.  I am following the instructions from here (http://linfiniti.com/2013/02/installing-python-gdal-into-a-python-virtualenv-in-osx/), and this is what happened in my shell.
