R SIG Fedora - Jan 2015 - Error installing 'rgdal' on Centos 7

Hello:

I can't install the ' rgdal ' package in R and ' GDAL ' on
CentOS 7
(ELGIS repo added).

Is there any solution?

Thanks

Please do not cross-post. Please do provide sufficient information to help 
diagnose your problem (here the output of the ./configure run during 
installation). Almost certainly you are trying to install from source when 
one or more external dependency is not satisfied. Did you read:

http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/redhat/README

and note that R-rgdal is *not* provided as a binary?

Did you read:

http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/rgdal/index.html

Did you download the source package and read the README file, also on 
R-Forge linked from the CRAN page:

https://r-forge.r-project.org/scm/viewvc.php/pkg/inst/README?view=markup&revision=409&root=rgdal

You don't say exactly what the problem is, but I can give you some
general advice.

The first thing to check on any RPM-based system is that you have the
appropriate development package installed, in this case gdal-devel.

I see that ELGIS does not support CentOS 7, so that might be your
problem. EPEL 7 does include gdal so you might rely on their package.

If neither of these are helpful then you need to be more specific.

Some details for the problem.
