Description

Refering to https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/ref/contrib/gis/geos/
it should be possible to create a point by calling pnt = GEOSGeometry('{ "type": "Point", "coordinates": [ 5.000000, 23.000000 ] }')

however in practice this returns

* ValueError: String or unicode input unrecognized as WKT EWKT, and HEXEWKB.

This works indeed. I guess it doesn't work for you because GDAL is not installed on your system. We may improve the error message.
