Yesterday, I announced the new release of GDAL 1.4.1. Today, it turned out that the package for 1.4.1 was generated from the development branch – trunk and the gdalinfo –version reports version 1.5.0 instead of 1.4.1.
Here you can find Frank’s instructions how to grab new and correct package with GDAL 1.4.1.
Today, Frank released new stable version of GDAL 1.4.1. This new release includes fixes and improvements only, but no new features comparing to version 1.4.0.
The stable release branching is a new practice in GDAL. This means version numbers will reflect the physical state of GDAL sources tree stored in branches. In version of X.Y.Z format, the X.Y part indicates what’s is the stable version regarding set of features and state of the API and the Z part indicates version of fixes.
