[R-SIG-Mac] rgdal installation problems

[John Maindonald]

Do you have the following in a .bash_profile, or some equivalent?:

export PATH=/Library/Frameworks/GDAL.framework/Programs:$PATH
export PATH=/Library/Frameworks/PROJ.framework/Programs:$PATH
export PATH=/Library/Frameworks/SQLite3.framework/Programs:$PATH
export PATH=/Library/Frameworks/UnixImageIO.framework/Programs:$PATH

(at least the first and second will be needed)

Alternatively, see:
http://www.kyngchaos.com/macosx/notes/shell

I suspect that rgdal will not install successfully unless an R session
is able to "see" GDAL and probably also PROJ.4
