[GRASS-dev] compiling grass 7 - can't find gdal (but it is there)

Hi, I am trying to compile grass7 (revision 61123) on Ubuntu 14.04, but the configuring fails with:


checking whether to use GDAL… yes
checking for gdal-config… /usr/bin/gdal/bin/gdal-config
configure: error: *** Unable to locate GDAL library.

The path /usr/bin/gdal/bin/gdal-config is correct. In addition, I could configure and build an earlier grass revision without problems (this is actually the first time in a very long time the process already fails at configure). Since then nothing has changed in respect to gdal.

OK, this seems to be solved with the latest update… thanks :slight_smile:
