Comment 5 for bug 126916

Hi,

this problem is not yet solved. typically i dont update to new releases very often because things just keep breaking and i am not expert enough in Linux to fix them well. so when i find a release that mostly works for me, i like to stay with it.

when i do update i will certainly let you know, since i use the gdal library a lot. its really quite important to get this bug fixed - at least for scientific geospatial needs...

cheers,
Vishal

for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.

Bug description:
There is a problem building gdal that creates a conflict between the hdf and netcdf drivers. Please take a look at http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/HDF .
If the package is not built correctly, gdal gets a core dump when opening netcdf files.
