[R-sig-Geo] problem for installing "rgdal" package in r

[Johan Van de Wauw]

This question has been asked here before. Which distribution are you using?

If you are using debian or ubuntu the admin should install
libgdal1-dev for building gdal. I also recommend installing r-base-dev
if it is not yet installed. It is needed for building most R packages

If the administrator is unreachable: try installing:
http://home.gdal.org/fwtools/FWTools-linux-2.0.6.tar.gz
and then run install.packages('rgdal',
configure.args=c(gdal='--with-gdal-config=~/FWTools-2.0.6/bin/gdal-config')
