Proj Crate
Has anyone managed to build the proj crate, I've tried on windows and on Ubuntu but always seem to have some problem with the proj-sys crate building proj from source.

Has anyone managed to build the proj crate, I've tried on windows and on Ubuntu but always seem to have some problem with the proj-sys crate building proj from source.
The seem to be working on getting it working on Windows right now: Windows builder in CI but I assume on linux it should be fine.
I don't have any experience with that crate myself.
@Kaiser If you run into trouble with something-sys, you should check whether that crate requires libsomething headers to be installed. (cargo will take care of dependencies, but only within Rust, it can't install arbitrary C libraries). On Ubuntu, you'll need to run
sudo apt install libproj-dev(maybe also libtiff-dev) to get these headers.Hello, does this comment solve your issue? I wrote this after solving the compilation issue on Windows myself

Thanks for the response, never got it quite working on windows but rebuilding my Ubuntu is seemed to do the trick.
Just created a new crate and added
proj, and thencargo build. And it works.proj-sysdid build.
