Virtualenv friendly GDAL bindings for Python

This package is for you if you had problems installing GDAL in your virtualenv. You can install GDAL into your virtualenv using this package but you still need to install GDAL library and its header files on your system. On Ubuntu it can be done this way:

$ sudo apt-get install libgdal1-dev

Version of the same package, and GDAL, so that if you have installed GDAL 3.6.4 you need to install 3.6.4.* of this package:

$ gdal-config --version
3.6.4
$ virtualenv --no-site-packages env
$ env/bin/pip install pygdal=="3.6.4.*"

The trick with range of versions required to support pygdal versioning.

from osgeo import gdal, ogr, osr
