Description of problem: There is a fragment of the RPM spec file below which includes a bad logical check on the RHEL-7 architecture for including spatialite dependency. Spatialite is not available on ppc64 but the logic excludes its use except for ppc64. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gdal-1.11.4-3 How reproducible: Consistently Steps to Reproduce: 1. Observe the runtime dependencies of the gdal packages don't include libspatialite. 2. Attempt to use spatialite within application using GDAL (including ogr2ogr) and observe failure. Actual results: Cannot use spatialite extensions. Expected results: Should be able to use spatialite. Additional info: Current spec file fragment: # No ppc64 build for spatialite in EL7 # https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=663938 %if 0%{?rhel} == 7 %ifnarch ppc64 %global with_spatialite 0 %global spatialite "--without-spatialite" %endif %endif Should instead include the line: %ifarch ppc64
This package has changed maintainer in the Fedora. Reassigning to the new maintainer of this component.
The version gdal-1.11 is completely outdated, current version is 3.1. Personally, I do not have the time nor knowledge to prepare a gdal-compat package. Any volunteer?
