[R-sig-Geo] rgdal package for mac

I have rgdal installed on two 10.6.8 machines -- one regrettably still
using R 2.14.1 and the other R 2.15.0.

Over time I have used both the CRAN Extras rgdal and the kyngchaos rgdal.
Currently I have the CRAN Extras version (0.7-8, 2012-01-18) installed,
but if there is now a version mismatch as Roger suggested might be the
case, I would try the kyngchaos version of rgdal.

My basic process for GIS support on my Macs is to
  1) download and install the necessary frameworks from kyngchaos
  2) install rgdal

#### GIS software for Mac (Snow Leopard and Lion)
http://hub.qgis.org/projects/quantum-gis/wiki/Download#3-MacOS-X
http://www.kyngchaos.com/software/qgis
http://www.kyngchaos.com/software/frameworks

The following describes the 2.15.0 machine.


#### listing of my GIS support directory, from kyngchaos qgis and
frameworks pages

 FreeType_Framework-2.4.9-1.dmg
 GDAL_Complete-1.9.dmg
 GRASS-6.4.2-3-Snow.dmg
 GSL_Framework-1.15-2.dmg
 Qgis-1.7.4-4.dmg
 cairo_Framework-1.10.2-3a-snow.dmg
 rgdal-0.7.8-1.zip   (this is the kyngchaos version of rgdal)

#### Then in R:
