If by "not work", you mean that there is no CRAN binary for OSX Mavericks
and subsequent, please see:

https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-mac/2014-April/010860.html

and later

https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-mac/2014-May/010871.html

(posted on this list in May), that is:

setRepositories(ind = c(1,6))  # so you get the dependencies from CRAN
install.packages('rgdal')

(untried for Yosemite by me - has anyone experience of the CRANxtras OSX 
binary on this release?). If this doesn't work, try Kyngchaos:

http://www.kyngchaos.com/software/frameworks

but note that Yosemite is not mentioned there specifically. Using OSX 
(especially newer releases) is like Unix, not like Windows, and you have 
to be prepared to install from source, including installing external 
dependencies from source.

If you meant something else, you need to say what you meant and document 
it with a reproducible example (works on Windows with R version, rgdal 
version and rgdal startup messages, doesn't work on OSX with the same 
platform data).
