At the next pkgver update, please kindly reset the pkgrel to 1.

Hi all, As I already went through updating the PKGBUILD to GDAL 3.7.2 I'm going to adopt the package, but I agree with @MarsSeed to have a new package with a more explicit name.

Hi All, Sorry for dropping the ball on this but given I no longer use the package I will be dropping this. Best of luck to whomever takes it over.

MarsSeed commented on 2023-10-05 07:07 (UTC)

I have an idea.

As this package gets built with both hdf4 and hdf5, but then it makes hdf5 optional, it is a bit confusing, because one would think that this cannot be used with HDF5.

Also, it is not a fully proper drop-in replacement for repo's gdal, which requires hdf5. Most of gdal's downstream dependents expect hdf5 to be there.

(And Arch's earlier, now discouraged, but still persisting packaging convention was that all direct dependencies are not necessarily declared if a direct dependency is also a transitive one.)

As hdf5 is staple now, I think a new package could be created, maybe named gdal-hdf4-hdf5, which mandatorily depends on both hdf4 and hdf5.

Build time would be exactly the same, and hdf5 is quite a small package (~3.5 MiB compressed). So having to install it should really not be an issue nowadays, even for small-footprint virtual containers.

Changed java from 21 to 8 and compiled successfully

Thanks @MarsSeed... It worked well until I reached 94% and got into the Java section:

I'm currently on the java-21-openjdk (latest I guess) so I don't know if it is related to the Java version I have. Here my archlinux-java status:

It seems that if PoDoFo support is required, then GDAL <= 3.7.2 needs podofo-0.9, not podofo 0.10+.

Also see this change in repo's gdal PKGBUILD for an idea on how to configure podofo-0.9 to be used during build.

I updated the PKGBUILD for GDAL 3.7.2 but got error during makepkg at 74%:

Any idea of how to fix it?

Running on the latest update arch release:

❯ uname -a
Linux iocaine 6.2.7-arch1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Sat, 18 Mar 2023 01:06:36 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux

What other debug info can I provide to help resolve this...?

NOTE: The normal gdal package installs correctly, but lacks the ability to read HDF4 files so it cannot be used with MODIS images!

Ok will take it over then. Thanks so much for your hard work on this. Much appreciated.
