Hi, I installed QlandkarteGT (1.7.5) in order to create a geotiff map out of a scanned tiff map. I installed the rpm via yum on my fedora 19 system. When I launch QlandkarteGT and try to convert a .tiff into a .geotiff it complains of lacking GDAL-tools: "can't find GDAL-tools in your path. Make sure you have installed GDAL and all related command line applications". I looked for GDAL-tools in my system (rpm -qa | grep GDAL), but there seems to be nothing like that installed. Is this a bug in the QlandkarteGT package, or am I overlooking something?

GDAL at Fedora is in package set "gdal" (note that there are multiple subpackages). See:
yum search GDAL
Does installing package "gdal" help?

Maybe. Reading the documentation and/or examining the source code may give a clue about what exactly it searches for. It seems there is only a dependency on "gdal-libs" but not on the "gdal" base package. That could be a missing dependency.
