[Qgis-user] recompiling gdal: problems with QGIS?

[Agustin Lobo]

Hi!

I'm about compiling gdal
to get a gdal with ECW and MrSid support in ubuntu hardy
following
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Instalar_Grass_e_Qgis_em_Ubuntu_8.04_(com_ECW_e_MrSID)

Considering that I have QGIS installed from binaries
for ubuntu, should I generate another version of gdal or should
I remove the gdal that I have first? In the second case,
will I be able to tell QGIS where the new gdal is
or would I have to compile QGIS as well?

Having support for ECW and MrSID from QGIS would be great,
but I rather don't go for the QGIS compilation now:
a gdal version with which change formats with
gdaltools would be enough by now.

Thanks for any advice

Agus
