'''TODO''': ''This Wiki article is under construction'' -- mloskot

In the meantime, here is shortcut to ./configure options disabling driver and features that can be safely disabled:

Additionnaly, if you apply the below patch, you'll get a very minimal GDAL with only GeoTIFF, Imagine HFA (for overviews in HFA format), Raw (for some VRT operations), and VRT (for gdal_translate) support for the raster part, and Shapefile and REC (needed by OpenEV) for the vector part. The python bindings will also work with that minimized build.
