Plaintive squeak: Why the change? Some OS's and desktops use the extension, so forgetting it causes trouble. The new default filename keeps a filetype (as before) but the user now has to type a filetype twice (once as the type, once as extension) to get the same effect fo rtheir own filenames. And the...

...gdal successfully. But sad to say, it didn't help a bit. When I try install.packages("rgdal",lib="/home/rolf/Rlib") I get exactly the same error as before.

First, thanks for all the replies to my plaintive cries for help; some of this gets a little frustrating when you're trying to do it from the seat of one's pants (as it were).

Dear All, I have got your core message, that it is my responsibility to determine whether any particular function in my version of R satisfies the language requirements at the time of your use. Jim Albert and Maria Rizzo must have used their code, which was permitted in the R-code of their time (2012).
