[Slackbuilds-users] gdal tarball possibly changed layout

[Greg' Ar Tourter]

Hi Luis,

I submitted a fix a few days ago for this. in the meantime use the source
url off the slackbuild website:
https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/releases/download/v3.4.2/gdal-3.4.2.tar.gz
or look at the change in git:
https://git.slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/commit/?h=willysr&id=bf9481b91e81851503e8ae54d41022eb8bbbd666

Then you do not need to change anything to the slackbuild script.

Hope this helps

Cheers

Greg
