Improve build doc when building gdal with LERC lib

Open SpaceCyclist opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

When reading https://gdal.org/development/building_from_source.html , for a new user, it is not straightforward that LERC driver with an external lib needs libTIFF built with LERC. I found this precision here: https://gdal.org/drivers/raster/gtiff.html#creation-options (see "LERC compression is also available when building GDAL against external libtiff >= 4.3.0, built itself against https://github.com/esri/lerc" ), but it would be nice for developers to have it on the build page.

but it would be nice for developers to have it on the build page.

can you contribute a document enhancement for that?
