Playing with MODISoptions.R lines 155-162:

> gdalPath = '/usr/local/bin' # take out correctPath as can't find where
defined at present ln 157
> if(length(grep(dir(gdalPath),pattern="gdalinfo"))==0)
+ {
+ stop(paste0("The 'gdalPath' you have provided
'",normalizePath(gdalPath,"/",FALSE) ,
+ "' does not contain any gdal utilities, make sure to address the
+ folder with GDAL executables (ie: gdalinfo)!"))
+ }

The preceding executes without complaint or stop as gdalinfo was found in
/usr/local/bin to have length >0.


>gdalDrivers()

47 GTiff  GeoTIFF   TRUE  TRUE    FALSE

51  HDF4Image     HDF4 Dataset   TRUE FALSE    FALSE

We have the necessary drivers. Hard coding MODIS_Opts.R gdalPath doesn't
work. Ah well.
