[R-sig-Geo] error in loading rgdal

[hanas at u.washington.edu]

Would anybody have an advice on the following error when loading rgdal?

> library(rgdal)
Loading required package: abind
Loading required package: pixmap
Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) :
        unable to load shared library 
'/net/home/hana/lib/rgdal/libs/rgdal.so':
  /net/home/hana/lib/rgdal/libs/rgdal.so: undefined symbol: 
_ZN14GDALRasterBand17GetRasterDataTypeEv
Error in library(rgdal) : .First.lib failed for 'rgdal'

It is installed on Debian Sarge, Kernel 2.4.26-om1. GDAL is installed from 
sources via FWTools-linux-0.9.8 which seems to work:

$ gdalinfo --version
GDAL 1.2.6.0, released 2005/03/13

and

$ ldd /net/home/hana/lib/rgdal/libs/rgdal.so
