So there was a thread on this back in February - I keep up with this
because I also would like the functionality - I've just failed in
trying to get it to work. Most likely skill issues on my part. <br>

Thread here:

<div>i did try both of the build methods and neither worked.
I get "command not found" for both.<br>

I would prefer a different format but I'm unaware of another

Have you followed the steps you've linked to? Did either the<br>
gdal-build-mrsid or gdal-mrsid-build work?<br>
