    2727This allows us to package the plugins as separate conda packages and therefore the core library can remain small while enabling full functionality of GDAL through these plugins. A nice feature of RFC 96 is that the core libgdal library will output a customizable error message when a plugin fails to load. For example when the hdf5 plugin is in a separate package called libgdal-hdf5, we can introduce an error message that says
    2828
    29 You may install it with ‘conda install -c conda-forge libgdal-hdf5’.
     29You may install it with
     30{{{
     31conda install -c conda-forge libgdal-hdf5
     32}}}
     33.
    3034This concept was first used for `libarrow/libparquet` dependency since it is a large dependency and especially because gdal supports four different major versions on conda-forge. By separating this dependency, only the plugin needs to be built for the four different arrow/parquet versions as opposed to the core libgdal library being built for the four different versions. The conda package for the plugin was called `libgdal-arrow-parquet` and depended on the core library conda package `libgdal` which included the rest of the plugins.
