Hi i am seriously having problems with installing this package on my Linux- Ubuntu machine. I think that i have installed the external gdal packages correctly.
The error message is in German : > install.packages('rgdal',dep = TRUE , lib = '~/lib/R') --- Bitte einen CRAN Spiegel für diese Sitzung auswählen --- Lade Tcl/Tk Interface ... fertig Warnmeldungen: 1: In open.connection(con, "r") : kann nicht mit 'cran.r-project.org' auf Port 80 verbinden 2: In getDependencies(pkgs, dependencies, available, lib) : package rgdal is not available this means : 1) cant connect to cran.r-project.org on port 80 And it takes about 5 Minutes to get the choose mirror window being opened. I also recognized that pages like *cran*.*r*-project.org seem to be offline too. So my quesion is, are there some server problems right now, and that is the reason for not being able to install this package? I need it to transform some Gauss krueger coordinates into latlong and this sptransform method from the package is the one i want to use.
