[R] Installing rgdal in R: correct -configure flags for GDAL install on Linux Redhat
Hi, I'm installing rgdal but I keep having failures because I have not been
able to find a good source of information for the correct configuration
settings when installing GDAL.
My error from the R install.packages("rgdal") is below.
Can someone point me to a good source to tell me how to set after
./configure when installing GDAL?
I'd like to be able to work with raster images, geotiffs, netCDF files, and
other raster-based image processing in R.
Right now I'm running ./configure for GDAL as follows:
./configure --prefix=$HOME/local/gdal/gdal-1.8.0 --with
jasper=$HOME/local/jasper/jasper-1.900.1.uuid/src/libjasper
Any insight would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
Error output from R:

If the PROJ.4 library is installed in a non-standard location,
use --configure-args='--with-proj-
include=/opt/local/include'
for example, replacing /opt/local/* with appropriate values
for your installation. If PROJ.4 is not installed, install it.

Hi Katrina, the error message below is actually pretty explicit. Have you installed the PROJ.4 library? If not, then you need to install it. When I had to do this I think that I used macports: sudo port install proj Then you need to tell configure where to find it, using the protocol suggested below. I hope that this helps.
