[Qgis-user] mrsid qgis 2.8 and ubuntu 14.04

[Chris House]

Hi all,

I'm trying to find some updated instructions for adding MrSid support for
QGIS 2.8 on Ubuntu 14.04.  I started following the instructions from here:

https://trac.osgeo.org/ubuntugis/wiki/TutorialMrSid

However, I'm hung up on the instructions where you do the build.  I
downloaded the following mrsid sdk from Lizardtech and extracted it.

MrSID_DSDK-9.1.0.4045-linux.x86-64.gcc44.tar.gz

The readme specifically says "no real installation is necessary"

Can someone point me to some updated instructions on how to get mrsid
support in QGIS 2.8?

Thanks!

Chris
