6246	gis: ogrinspect: AttributeError when the spatial reference system is undefined in the data source	jos3ph	jbronn	"Calling {{{ogrinspect()}}} without an explicit {{{srid}}} and with a data source that does not have a spatial reference system defined causes an {{{AttributeError}}} exception. 

If the {{{srid}}} is explicitly given, no error occurs. However, since the code gives {{{srid_str}}} a value if {{{srid}}} is ''None'', I'm assuming that an {{{AttributeError}}} should be caught and the {{{srid_str}}} given the same value as if {{{srid}}} were ''None''.

I think this is may be similar to a previous issue I asked about on the django-user mailing list:
  http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/browse_thread/thread/82f7c9b286285ea8/7188dc71222bc80b
which jbronn fixed in [6916].

The following IPython session, which is also pasted at http://dpaste.com/hold/28583/, is using the shapefile from http://www.census.gov/geo/cob/bdy/st/st00shp/st99_d00_shp.zip. Note that ![2] works with an explicit {{{srid}}}, while ![3] fails:
