[R-sig-Geo] MODIS package's runGdal() returns error: dataFormat='GTiff', format not supported

[Hakim Abdi]

Hi Alex,

The OS is a 64 bit Windows 7 as specified in the sessionInfo() output I
posted. When I upgraded QGIS, I did so by uninstalling the previous one and
reinstalling the new version. I'm not quite sure what it means to upgrade
GDAL since I installed it fresh with OSGeo4W. In R, I reinstall all the
packages I need fresh off the repository using the install.views command.

gdalDrivers() produces the output that's attached.

Cheers,

Hakim
