[R-sig-Debian] Installing TMAP in R Studio on Linux Mint
Dear Dirk et al, What I've tried is to install libgeos-dev: sudo apt-get install libgeos-dev Which gives me, even after adding the ubuntugis-unstable PPA: E: Unable to locate package libgeos-dev So I'm a little stuck at the moment. I'm trying to install TMAP on R-Studio, which requires a number of packages all of which rely on the libgeos-dev being in place, and I can't seem to find it. Many thanks again and in advance, Abed On 31 May 2015 at 16:20, Dirk Eddelbuettel <edd at debian.org> wrote:> > On 31 May 2015 at 09:48, Abed W.

If Mint really does not have it, you could download the sources for the package and create a local "backport" of it to your system. There are some tutorial out there on how to build a Debian package -- at least you don;t have to build it from scratch. You may have to recursively build other build-dependencies too. And as I said, Debian and Ubuntu seem to have it pre-build...
