[R-sig-Geo] cannot install rgdal after updating to fedora32

[Veronica Andreo]

Hello everyone

I have just updated my system to fedora 32 (which fetched GDAL 3 and PROJ
6) and when updating my R packages, I get the following error for rgdal.
Can someone help me out here? What does it mean that it cannot run C++
compiled programs?  And do I want to crosscompile?

Thanks much in advance

Vero
