[R-sig-Geo] rgdal release candidate 1.5-9 rev. 1000 ready for testing

Fri Jun 5 19:44:21 CEST 2020

Thanks all.  My problem is I already have Fink and Homebrew and everything starts interfering with everything,  so I have cut back on package managers except for a few essentially libraries.  Roger,  thanks for the links and the advice.    Kyngchaos also was defeated in that he doesn’t have Catalina and I guess isn’t set up to run it.  Too bad because his frameworks were alway pretty reliable.

Do not choose "both", choose "binary". We cannot help you to install these packages from source. If that means waiting for new functionality, wait.

We have an issue open on the r-spatial task view repo, which we can use to propagate proven ideas: https://github.com/r-spatial/task_views/issues/16 <https://github.com/r-spatial/task_views/issues/16>. "It works for me now" is not proven - we need paths that have worked predictably for years without significant modification (unfortunately it seems that notarization has defeated Kyngchaos, which had worked well for years but no longer).
