[Freegis-list] Gdal on slackware

[Tomas Zajc]

As a mater of fact for some reason there was nothing on the gcore directory. I 
downloaded back gdal and decompressed using an other method. This time I 
could compile it using "./configure", "make" and "make install". I'm a bit 
lost anda I couldn't find much documantation. 

When I try to run ogr2ogr I get "ogr2ogr: error while loading shared 
libraries: libgdal.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or 
directory".

I got them at:

/usr/local/lib/libgdal.a
/usr/local/lib/libgdal.la
/usr/local/lib/libgdal.so
/usr/local/lib/libgdal.so.1
/usr/local/lib/libgdal.so.1.10.0

Do you know where can I get any documentation on how to compile a C program 
that uses gdal using gcc. Should I use the flags kisted by  
"gdal-config --libs; gdal --dep-libs"? In may case they are:

-L/usr/local/lib -lgdal 
and
-lhdf5 -lgif -ljpeg -ltiff -lpng -lz -lm -lrt -ldl

Thanks, Tomas
