On Cran it indicates that the package is not available on MAC (OSX 10.5.8) Is that the whole story? Is it a situation that will change or am I missing something. I've left a similar Q on the Mac Sig, but havent got any feedback
It is always possible to use the instructions on the CRAN page under SystemRequirements: - that is install the external dependencies, for example using Kyngchaos' frameworks, and install from source, or from an OSX binary rgdal package at the same site. This probably gives a larger set of drivers.
For those who prefer a Leopard-style binary with the same minimal set of drivers that we have on CRAN for Win32 and Win64: I can with pleasure thank Brian Ripley for making both 32-bit and 64-bit Intel versions available on CRAN extras - on OSX use:
setRepositories(ind=1:2) install.packages('rgdal')
Please report back on whether this advice was helpful. Roger
