Eusoils @ JRC distributes GISCO database as shapefiles with a specific
projections as detailed in
{{{
http://eusoils.jrc.ec.europa.eu/gisco_dbm/dbm/home.htm
}}}
In order to properly create a location it is required adding manually a
new custom sphere with a 6378388 radius to the ellipse.table file. It
would be nice adding it permanently in the standard file.

Comment(by neteler):

I have tried with this dataset (converted to SHAPE):
http://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps
/data/soil-type and do not manage to reproject it correctly to, say, EPSG
3035 (EU-LAEA)
using the indicated custom sphere with a 6378388 radius.
