[Qgis-user] MrSID raster and QGIS in linux

[Eric Goddard]

Hmm, I don't think you could've made it past the compiling gdal steps
if the geotiff package wasn't installed. In the cmake window for
configuring libLAS, do you have Values for GEOTIFF_INCLUDE_DIR and
GEOTIFF_LIBRARY? I have /usr/include/geotiff and /usr/lib/geotiff.so,
respectively.

Keep in mind that if you only want to compile QGIS you don't have to
compile LASzip, libLAS, or GRASS 7.
