[Qgis-user] ubuntugis: Broken after update to 2.18.14

[Angelos Tzotsos]

Dear Bernd,

The transition of GDAL has been communicated in the UbuntuGIS mailing 
list since Nov 7:
https://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu@lists.osgeo.org/msg01406.html

Also, the hint that the maintenance team (volunteers) is trying to break 
QGIS packages on purpose is totally unacceptable.
