Ubuntu 21.10 gdal python3

[Terrance McMinn]

Hello

I seem to have an underlining issue with libgdal28:

I have installed gdal-bin gdal-data python3-gdal.

In a bash terminal:

python3 /usr/share/doc/python3-gdal/examples/assemblepoly.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/osgeo/__init__.py", line 18, in 
swig_import_helper
     return importlib.import_module(mname)
   File "/usr/lib/python3.9/importlib/__init__.py", line 127, in 
import_module
     return _bootstrap._gcd_import(name[level:], package, level)
   File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 1030, in _gcd_import
   File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 1007, in _find_and_load
   File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 986, in

   File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 666, in _load_unlocked
   File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 565, in module_from_spec
   File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap_external>", line 1173, in

   File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 228, in 
_call_with_frames_removed
ImportError: /lib/libgdal.so.28: undefined symbol: 
TIFFGetStrileByteCount, version LIBTIFF_4.0

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/usr/share/doc/python3-gdal/examples/assemblepoly.py", line 33, 
in <module>
     from osgeo import ogr
   File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/osgeo/__init__.py", line 32, in 
<module>
     _gdal = swig_import_helper()
   File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/osgeo/__init__.py", line 31, in 
swig_import_helper
     return importlib.import_module('_gdal')
   File "/usr/lib/python3.9/importlib/__init__.py", line 127, in 
import_module
     return _bootstrap._gcd_import(name[level:], package, level)
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_gdal'

This same error prevents me from install qgis as qgis-providers requires 
libqgis28

ls -lai /usr/lib/libgdal*

/usr/lib/libgdal.so.28 -> libgdal.so.28.0.2
7999019 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 21914864 Sep  9 19:03 
/usr/lib/libgdal.so.28.0.2

Any suggestions on fixes?
