QGIS does not read ESRI Geodatabase correctly


I have a geodatabase from the EPA that does not seem to me reading correctly with Quantum GIS. QGIS Version 1.8.0 (Lisboa) and GDAL/OGR 1.9.2


When I open the attribute table the first two columns have the same data. The first column is CERCLA_ID and the second is SITE_NAME. Both columns have the SITE_NAME value. As far as I can tell all else is correct.


I opened various files in the .gdb folder using a hex editor and in the a00000004.gdbtable file the data is stored in an XML format internally and the correct CERCLA_ID value is indeed being stored along with the SITE_NAME.



Is there something wrong with the file or something wrong with the program?


I also heard back from my EPA contact. He says they are using "attribute domains" on their end.
