So if I currently have gdal, which includes the utils and I run
   pip --upgrade
I will get the new gdal without the utils but not gdal-utils,
so the upgrade will remove the utils functionality ?

Hi Alan,

pip install gdal-utils
Will install also gdal as it is its dependency.

In case we will take the utils out of the gdal sdist - Even tough your
suggestion to add gdal-utils as a dependency to gdal would make `pip
install gdal` to also install both, it makes less sense to me as gdal does
not actually depend on gdal-utils and it might complicate things in other
ways. In that case, IMHO telling people who want to install the utils to
pip install gdal-utils makes more sense...

Removing the utils from the gdal sdist/wheel means that people who
install gdal won't have the utils unless they installed the utils wheel.

You mentioned that gdal_utils is now on pypi. Are you able to set it as a
dependency in the setup.py so it is installed when the main osgeo/gdal
python package is installed?

Best,
Alan
