The current version of rgdal on CRAN is 0.6-28, not 0.3-5! The latter was never in CRAN, but 0.3-7 dates from 2006.

Is your R version (unstated, see the posting guide) also from 2006?

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to install the "rgdal" package in R, but it seems not possible...

i'm typing

install.packages("rgdal")
Warning in install.packages("rgdal") :
 argument 'lib' is missing: using '/home/toro/R/i486-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.

--- Please select a CRAN mirror for use in this session ---
Loading Tcl/Tk interface ... done
Warning message:

 package ‘rgdal’ is not available

I also tried to download the package from http://sourceforge.
net/projects/rgdal/files/  , and tried

$ R CMD INSTALL /home/toro/Downloads/rgdal_0.3-5.tar.gz
* Installing to library ‘/home/toro/R/i486-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.9’
* Installing *source* package ‘rgdal’ ...

-
O2 -c gdal-bindings.cpp -o gdal-bindings.o
gdal-bindings.cpp: In function ‘char* asString(SEXPREC*, int)’:
gdal-bindings.cpp:28: error: invalid conversion from ‘const char*’ to ‘char*’
make: *** [gdal-bindings.o] Error 1
ERROR: compilation failed for package ‘rgdal’
* Removing ‘/home/toro/R/i486-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.9/rgdal’

and this happens also for other versions of gdal  I have downloaded.

The biggest problem is that also other packages like spgrass6, spGDAL and
spmaptools are dependent from gdal....so i cannot go on....

Can I ask you to help me , please??

Thank you

Matteo
