Micha,
As for GDAL, I'd expect you will want to add the support for ECW and
MrSID directly thru GDAL, not as some separate image support library.
Yes, correct.

Hi all,
Could we clarify the situation for ecw and Mrsid
formats in QGIS? (and perhaps put a note
somewhere in the qgis web pages).
I think that not being
able to read these formats is a major drawback
in practice. At least in Spain, a lot of public
available raster layers are in these formats

I thought I would give your repo a try on my etch server but I had
some problems with the pgp key:

Hi,
... Not only in Spain, in France, IGN is working with ecw, and all
orthophotos are in ecw.
It's really a major drawback !

GDAL provides a configure script to add GRASS support as a plugin

No, th
Is there really a need to recompile QGIS depending on which formats are
compiled into GDAL?
Is it in that case possible to remove that dependency, such as dynamically
query GDAL what
formats are available?

Last time we exchanged our frustration with this situation, I even gave
a name to the new gdal binaries: we need a "gdal-good" "gdal-bad" and

released as binaries outside of the standard distro repos
