Dear list members, I am using R 3.1.0 mavericks build but I noticed that rgdal is not available yet. Any idea when will be available?
Thanks for the heads-up - this is not something the rgdal maintainer or developers can answer (also I have no OSX access of any kind, let alone Mavericks). Please ask on R-sig-mac to establish the current situation - it may be that the new Apple build trains are creating problems for GDAL and PROJ, and if they cannot be built easily, the rgdal binaries will
also
not be forthcoming until this is dealt with. Please report back on

on R-sig-mac. If you can install rgdal from source, look at: http://www.kyngchaos.com/software/frameworks for suitable frameworks for GDAL/PROJ (and GEOS if you need rgeos). There are discussions related to Mavericks on Kyngchaos.
The problems seem to have to do with the new built for Maverick. However, you can download the package here: http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/contrib/3.1/ And install manually (local package with source code) This works also for gstat, rgeos, spacetime and so on. I found this solution here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/r-sig-mac/3yrqRaMrSPQ/ERkzSsoYe-cJ Best regards Ralf
