[Bug 368065] Re: Cartographic projection library (proj) built without datum conversion grid data

[tvrusso]

This issue is still present in Karmic.  It means that any user of GIS
software in the Ubuntu repositories that depends on proj.4 will get
incorrect results when working between NAD27 and NAD83 datums.  This is
a serious problem, and the fix is simple (I posted the commands for
building it properly).  Most users will not be aware of the issue until
it bites them, and the ubuntugis ppa is not a solution they'll find
quickly.  Could someone please commit a fixed package built properly
with datum shift grids, and backport it to older releases, too?
