Title:
  Please sync gdal from debian unstable

Status in “gdal” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  QGIS relies on the GDAL python scripts to use the .py extension, and
  cannot easily support both with and without the extension in the
  current codebase.

  The change to strip the .py extension was first included in gdal
  1.10.1+dfsg-1,  shortly after this issue was reported in the QGIS
  issue tracker and brought to the attention of the Debian GIS team the
  change was reverted and included in gdal 1.10.1+dfsg-5 currently since
  yesterday available in Debian unstable.

  QGIS issue: http://hub.qgis.org/issues/9924

  There are no material changes in ubuntu, this should be safe to sync

  Upstream changelog:
  gdal (1.10.1+dfsg-5) unstable; urgency=medium

    * Don't run dh for custom targets.
    * Also remove config.log on clean.
    * Don't strip .py extension from python scripts, breaks QGIS plugins.
