Installing RGDAL on CentOS v.6.2
Dear Eric, Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, I don't have NetBSD on the cluster and considering the size of my dataset, I can't utilise my local machine. Does it make a difference that the R installed on the cluster is up-to-date if I do want to compile everything from tar.gz? Thanks again. Sincerely, Shouro

Dear Shouro, I can confirm that I have installed GDAL (and RGDAL) on CentOS 6.4, 6.5, and 6.6. But quite frankly, these systems have such old versions of software that I spent a fair amount of time compiling everything up from tar.gz. This is exhausting, so I spent some time learning NetBSD's pkgsrc--and now recommend this wonderful package manager to anyone caught in a situation where they don't have root privileges, but need to bring an old CentOS to have modern versions of software and all its dependencies.

I have access to an IBM IDataplex Cluster with CentOS v.6.2. R 3.2.1 is
currently installed. I was wondering if there was any way to install RGDAL
on it? Thanks!
Sincerely,
Shouro
