[DebianGIS-dev] Bug#476657: python-gdal: not available anymore for python 2.4 in sid

[Didrik Pinte]

Package: python-gdal
Version: 1.5.1-2+b1
Severity: normal

Hi

After the python 2.5 migration as default python interpreter in sid, it seems
that 2.4 gdal support is broken even if packaged using python-central.

Here is the output of a 2.4 session trying to load gdal :

did at ddp:~/projets/python/thuban/current/thuban$ python2.4
Python 2.4.5 (#2, Apr 17 2008, 13:00:52) 
[GCC 4.2.3 (Debian 4.2.3-3)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from osgeo import gdal
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/osgeo/gdal.py", line 7, in ?
    import _gdal
ImportError: No module named _gdal
>>> 

If more info is needed, feel free to ask.
