@bodaay update your gdal or install from source

@bodaay also you can check how I managed to install lukeroth/gdal from travis.yml

Based on the gdal.sh script I can conclude that version 2.3.2 is supported which is really nice. If that is the case, I would suggest you update the readme to mention this fact since I’ve passed by this project previously without spending tool much effort figuring out is it applicable for my case because the mentioned gdal version is waay too old

Anyway, I had the same problem like @bodaay ; I can't rely on people using latest gdal so I forked and made the small fixes needed for the libgdal20 that is present on Ubunutu 18.04.LTS: which is 2.2.3 version

Thanks a lot for this repository by the way, work is much appreciated! If theoretically possible to maintain LTS branches for Ubuntu 18.04 feel free to ask for a PR to push this small change into a separate branch for people like me and @bodaay

Thanks for your comments, this repository has languished for some time as go did not end up being widely used at our company. I'm cleaning things up a bit today and trying to get everything current with the most recent GDAL version on ubuntu 18.10. Pull requests are always welcome!
