Ticket #1085 (closed bug: worksforme)
layer's SRS not recognized (at *first load* only)
Description
Even if the layer's SRS is not prone to bug #1079, as described in #1079 comment:2, QGIS fails to recognize the layer's SRS at each *first*, but *only at first* load. Example:
The attached layer is in EPSG:32633, which is in proj4 lingo:
+proj=utm +zone=33 +ellps=WGS84 +datum=WGS84 +units=m +no_defs
the layer's ogrinfo output confirms:
$ ogrinfo -al -so sample_utm33n
INFO: Open of `sample_utm33n'
using driver `ESRI Shapefile' successful.
Layer name: area

*Quit any QGIS instances you running.* Load the shapefile into QGIS. Depending on your setting in Settings > Options > Projection, QGIS will assign your default SRS or it will prompt you to pick on from the list - which means that QGIS fails to recognize the layer's SRS. Interstingly, at each subsequent loading of the same layer this problem does not take place anymore!
I suspect this is a QGIS issue. If it's down to GDAL or anything else please forward the ticket where it belongs.
