 I'm also on OS X using qgis built from the current svn trunk. I would
 run a quick test with a point file with 25 points and a single id

 the rgdal dependency, I am now running into problems with the output
 of the computed shapefile while running the plugin. Here is the error
 I receive in a dialog window:

 R error: Error in writeOGR(khr.polygons, dir, name, ESRI Shapefile) :
 GDAL Error 1: Failed to create file .shp file.

 Any ideas on how to fix this?

Not immediately: the plugin structure is dependent of a lot of code. 

I checked if GDAL accepts spaces in the name of the file, and it does. Maybe 
you have choosen a folder where you don't have write access?

I suggest using pure R and try to writeOGR something (you can pick up suitable 
data and examples in rgdal package).

Any other OS X users with similar issues?

  Hello,
 
  I am having problems installing the rgdal R package, I have

  If you install it with dep=TRUE, it should install all the
  dependencies.
  Please keep on writing to the mailing list, ther will be more people
  able to reply.
 
  Right. Dependencies problems are the most common using HomeRange
  plugin, as
  the coupling with R is not so tight: the plugin is not supposed to
  install
  missing packages.
 
  As Paolo pointed out, it is better to install the required packages
  with the R
  command (on Linux you need to be root)
 
  install.packages(package_name, dep=TRUE)
 
  It will assure the complete set of dependencies. Otherwise you can
  also check
  the dependencies on each package's web page and download them
  manually - but
  it is more complicated.
  See also the wiki page [0] of the plugin for more information.
 
  all the best,
  Anne

Re: [Qgis-user] Problem with HomeRange plugin - rgdal dependencies

2009-02-11 Thread Sebastian Cruz

Hi there,

Thank you for all the advice, unfortunetly I am still unable to  
install the rgdal packages and its dependencies. I get the following  
message when I try:


Warning in install.packages(package_rgdal, dep = TRUE) :
  argument 'lib' is missing: using '/Users/sebastiancruz/Library/R/ 
2.8/library'

Warning message:
package ‘package_rgdal’ is not available


I have to mention that the package is in the address it mentions, i.e.  
the library in the folder 2.8


I appreciate any help

Sebas

That command should be:

install.packages(rgdal, dep = TRUE)
