MODIS package's runGdal() returns error: dataFormat='GTiff', format not supported

Logging out (Log out?!?, do people still do that?), which is mentioned in

terminal, actually restarting the kernel, results in system update where
after MRT is recognized but still, in my case, drivers are not:
All suggested packages are installed

Found: 64 candidate drivers, detecting file extensions...
ERROR 1: --format option given with format 'VRT-raster-', but that format

and use the short code (ie. GTiff or HFA) as the format identifier.
