[DebianGIS-dev] Bug#545891: python-gdal: crashes when importing gdal_array

[Oz Nahum]

Package: python-gdal
Version: 1.6.1-3
Severity: important

Hi,
from osgeo import gdal_array
causes a segmentation fault.

A quick check up brought up this is only in the latest package. Not in
1.6.1-2.

Here's a log of actions:
