I have recently acquired a new laptop and a new OS (Ubuntu 16.04) and
have encountered a problem when trying to install rgdal.
The initial hiccups were overcome by installing "libgdal-dev" and
"libproj-dev" on my system, and then re-installing the package
"sp" (as
advised by postings that I googled up on StackOverflow.
But then I came to a shuddering halt when I got the following error
response to run
install.packages("rgdal",lib="/home/rolf/Rlib")
Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) :
unable to load shared object '/home/rolf/Rlib/rgdal/libs/rgdal.so':
/home/rolf/Rlib/rgdal/libs/rgdal.so: undefined symbol:
CPLQuietErrorHandler
I've googled around a bit on that and could find nothing that I could
comprehend.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? Ta.
cheers,
Rolf Turner

I did not have libgdal1-dev installed, but having installed it I tried install.packages("rgdal",lib="/home/rolf/Rlib") again and got the same damned error message as before.> ** testing if installed package can be loaded > Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) : > unable to load shared object '/home/rolf/Rlib/rgdal/libs/rgdal.so': > /home/rolf/Rlib/rgdal/libs/rgdal.so: undefined symbol: CPLQuietErrorHandler > Error: loading failed > Execution haltedHas anyone out there any other ideas as to what's going wrong for me and how I might fix it? cheers, Rolf -- Technical Editor ANZJS Department of Statistics University of Auckland Phone: +64-9-373-7599 ext. 88276
