I just updated Django 1.11 to 1.11.1 to learn my project would not start
without changes to the settings. runserver stops with this message:
{{{
django.contrib.gis.gdal.error.GDALException: Could not find the GDAL
library (tried "gdal", "GDAL", "gdal1.11.0", "gdal1.10.0", "gdal1.9.0",
"gdal1.8.0", "gdal1.7.0"). Try setting GDAL_LIBRARY_PATH in your settings.
}}}
My installed apps:
{{{

I could find a reference in the docs at
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/releases/1.11.1/:
> Prevented hiding GDAL errors if it’s not installed when using
contrib.gis (#28160). (It’s a required dependency as of Django 1.11.)
... but I didn't have the issue when I was running Django 1.11. I did not
expect such a dependency change in a minor version update. How can I
disable GIS?
