rgdal release candidate 1.5-9 rev. 1000 ready for testing

Hi Roy,

I use and recommend MacPorts as a package manager for macOS computers. It is quite comprehensive in terms of programs/libraries available, almost always up-to-date and pretty simple to use. It does not always provide binaries though, it needs to compile a few packages from source (gdal is an example) - which can take a little bit, depending on your machine configuration.

I have some notes on how to set it up - maybe it's useful for you:?https://thiagodossantos.com/post/1-mac-science-software/ ?

Hi All:

Is there a source for binaries of PROJ >= 6 and GDAL > 3? for the Mac, other than the Anaconda ones which cause problems because they use @rpart?

Thanks,

-Roy

The release candidate of rgdal_1.5-9 is ready for testing on R-forge:

https://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=884

Those insisting on installing on PROJ >= 6 and GDAL < 3 must use configure argument --with-proj_api="proj_api.h"; with this used, this version builds with --no-build-vignettes and installs and checks OK on PROJ 7.0.1 and GDAL 2.2.4 with --with-proj_api="proj_api.h".

Otherwise checked OK with PROJ 4.8.0, 4.9.2, 4.9.3 and 5.2.0 with GDAL 1.11.4; with PROJ 5.2.0 and GDAL 2.2.4, 2.3.2 and 2.4.2; with PROJ 6.3.2 and GDAL 3.0.4; with PROJ 7.0.1 and GDAL 3.0.4 and 3.1.0.

All who have indicated issues with source installs are asked to try the release candidate and to report back here by midnight CEST Monday 8 June. If no indications are forthcoming, I'll assume that problems with 1.5-8 are resolved.

Roger
