Hi all,

I have successfully made and installed both gdal, and proj.4, but still
cannot get rgdal to be installed in R. I think i'm very close. I do not
have root access, if that matters, i've installed everything locally. I'm
using debian on a beowulf cluster.

I call:

install.packages("rgdal", .libPaths()[1], configure.args =
"--with-gdal-config=/usr/local/pkg/gdal/bin/gdal-config
--with-proj-include=/nfs/user08/bw4sz/include
--with-proj-lib=/nfs/user08/bw4sz/lib")

i've defeated the gdal-config and the api_proj.h file errors that have
plagued others. Now i believe i've run into a smaller problem.

The package downloads and installs but it fails the "lazy loading test".
This seems like an error with the rgdal version, since its looking for a
file libgdal.so.1 that no longer exists. Is this a versioning issue?

please forgive cross-posting on R-sig debian for those who subscribe to
both.
