[GRASS-user] i.modis and missing support for HFD4 under Gentoo/Funtoo-Linux

Dears,

I am trying to use `i.modis.download`. There is this message
"GDAL installation has no support for HDF4, please update GDAL" that
won't let the module run at all.

Strangely, there is no 'hdf' use flag (Gentoo/Funtoo terminology) for
gdal (anymore?).

Any Gentoo users?

Thank you, Nikos
