Some days ago Brian Ripley and Uwe Ligges announced an update to MinGW-w64
builds for 64-bit Windows on r-de...@. This daily version works really nice.
But it is not fully applicable at this time because of some missing packages.
I am in particular interested in a 64-bit version of rgdal, which depends on
a 64-bit version of gdal(.dll). Is their anything known about what is planned
with this important part of spatial software?
For this, a 64-bit MSYS is required. If someone who has a 64-bit Windows
system can take the initiative on this, I would be very grateful - I have
no access to any such system. Brian Ripley and Uwe Ligges have been in
touch with me on this, and so far have put it aside until packages without
external dependencies are done. It really does depend on our community
building PROJ.4, EXPAT, and GDAL from source under 64-bit MSYS on a
Windows 64-bit system using the same build train as other w64 packages, if
we want it done.
