[Qgis-user] Rasterize (vector to raster) no longer exists

[William Kyngesburye]

If it's GDAL 1.10 causing the problem, did anyone say anything on the list or in a bug report.  I just blindly rebuilt my OS X QGIS to use GDAL 1.10, it would have been nice to know I should not have.

Is there a simple fix for this that I could add to my QGIS 1.8 build?

If not, Thiago, then reinstall QGIS 1.8-1, this will use the old GDAL 1.9 framework which should still be installed, though the GDAL path in GdalTools config will still point to the latest GDAL 1.10.  For simplicity, reinstall GDAL 1.9, that will reset the default GDAL version, yet still leave both 1.9 and 1.10 installed.  You should probably then reinstall the previous GRASS 6.4.2-? (I forget which build version).  But, I haven't updated my archive in a while so these old versions will be difficult to find if you don't have your own backup of them.

... for all that hassle, I hope that the GdalTools can be easily fixed to avoid all the downgrading.
