[Qgis-user] MrSid support on 64-bit Linux?

2009-04-14 Thread Mark A. Haun
Greetings,

I need some mapping software to plan hiking trips with DRG topo maps,
aerial photography, DEMs, and so forth.  I've been using OziExplorer
under Wine but it has its quirks.  I thought I would check out a real
GIS solution, and QGIS looks interesting.  Before I try it out, though,
I need to know if my MrSid data will be usable.  (To keep this
discussion focused, converting all of my map data to TIFF is "off the
table" for now.)

I don't mind building QGIS and its dependencies myself, but I would
really like to know beforehand if MrSid support (using the DSDK from
LizardTech) is working on Linux.  Google turns up some half-answers
along the lines of "you should be able to..." and "theoretically all
you need to do is...", but I have yet to find a concrete "Yes, I tried
it, it works, and here's how."  As an added wrinkle, I'm running amd64
Debian, but I do see a claim of 64-bit support in the latest DSDK on
the LizardTech web site.

So... any success reports, on either x86 or x86-64?

Regards,

Mark

1.0.1 is 1.0.1 stable
1.1 is svn unstable, you can get this version if you choose the qgis-dev
 version from OSGeo4w

Please realize that 1.1 is the in development version and it changes
daily, so packages of it may not always be exactly the latest, and may
not always work the way you think they might.

I believe the packager is Jürgen E. Fischer who is on this list.

Hello,

Thanks for the information.

Which version of QGIS is the OSGEO 1.0.1-Kore ?
With that install/version I am still just getting the server name
as the default layer name.

I'll ask at OSGEO to see who is doing the package builds...

Peter

Hi Peter

QGIS now selects the WMS layer name(s) as a first legend name (at least for 
version >= 1.1). In older version, it was the server name

Marco

Hello,

Which WMS, getcaps query, XML entity is meant to be used as the
layer name that appears in the Quantum GIS legend?

QGIS appears to be defaulting everything to the name given
for the WMS server...(?!) I then need to manually rename
each layer to something more enlightening.

My thought was that maybe I am missing something in my
WMS XML...
