Sorry, my mistake, but  just at writing the link, I actually downloaded
the correct one:
http://www.kyngchaos.com/files/software/frameworks/GDAL_Complete-1.7.dmg

> Can you allocate the folder:

Yes:
imac-de-agustin-lobo:Frameworks agustinlobo$ pwd
/Library/Frameworks
imac-de-agustin-lobo:Frameworks agustinlobo$ ls -l

This problem persists:
imac-de-agustin-lobo:GDAL.framework agustinlobo$ gdalinfo --version
-bash: gdalinfo: command not found

But actually, the R installation of rgdal works now. Could it be that
I needed to reboot after
installing GDAL? I'd like to clarify as I'm trying to write up directions:

> install.packages("/Users/agustinlobo/Downloads/rgdal/rgdal_0.6-29.tgz")
inferring 'repos = NULL' from the file name
> require(rgdal)
Loading required package: rgdal

No, those are different problems. The one I report here is the installation with
the rgdal provided in kyngchaos
http://www.kyngchaos.com/files/software/frameworks/rgdal-0.6.29-1.zip

The other one is the problem installing rgdal from CRAN repositories 1 and 2

I still do not know which one is to be preferred...
