This issue is still present in Karmic. It means that any user of GIS software in the Ubuntu repositories that depends on proj.4 will get incorrect results when working between NAD27 and NAD83 datums. This is a serious problem, and the fix is simple (I posted the commands for building it properly). Most users will not be aware of the issue until it bites them, and the ubuntugis ppa is not a solution they'll find quickly. Could someone please commit a fixed package built properly with datum shift grids, and backport it to older releases, too?
