[Ubuntu] How to install the correct proj version?

[Etienne Tourigny]

Luis - are you sure you didn't install it proj-4.7 yourself elsewhere?
 You can find out which proj install is used by gdal like this:

$ which proj
/usr/bin/proj

$ ldd `which gdalinfo` | grep proj
	libproj.so.0 => /usr/lib/libproj.so.0 (0x00007f2ff92eb000)

cheers
Etienne
