[Ubuntu] gdal hasnt been compiled with hfd4/5 support

[nikos ves]

Hi 

gdal from ubuntugis/unstable (from what i can gather) hasnt been
compiled with hdf4/5 

here's the output of gdal-config --formats 

gxf gtiff hfa aigrid aaigrid ceos ceos2 iso8211 xpm sdts raw dted mem
jdem envisat elas fit vrt usgsdem l1b nitf bmp pcidsk airsar rs2 ilwis

pds adrg coasp tsx terragen blx msgn til r northwood saga wcs wms grib

A custom build does list hdf5/4 in the supported formats. I can assume
its been forgotten or is there an issue with those formats and gdal?

If possible, can gdal be republished with hfd support please?

Kind regards
