Dear list, I tried to install rgdal in R 2.13.0 on Mac OS X 10.6.7 but it keeps failing no matter if I install from source or binary.
You have not said how you installed rgdal - CRAN extras binary, Kyngchaos binary on Kyngchaos frameworks, source install on Kyngchaos frameworks, or source on GDAL source build.
I installed from Kyngchaos binary and and when this failed from source on the kyngchaos frameworks. I actually updated to the GDAL framework 1.8 from kyngchaos. However, it works on my Mac Pro in the office - so is obviously an issue with some iodb drivers
The dependency is not from rgdal directly, but rather from GDAL as loaded by rgdal.
The standard OSX install is to use the binary package directly, by ensuring that the CRAN extras repository is being searched:
setRepositories(ind=1:2)
install.packages("rgdal")
That works - thanks! Ralf
