You will be aware, for example from: https://r-spatial.org/r/2022/04/12/evolution.html, https://r-spatial.org/r/2022/12/14/evolution2.html, https://r-spatial.org/r/2023/04/10/evolution3.html and https://rsbivand.github.io/csds_jan23/bivand_csds_ssg_230117.pdf and perhaps view https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlpjIqTPMCA&list=PLzREt6r1NenmWEidssmLm-VO_YmAh4pq9&index=1 that rgdal, rgeos and maptools will be retired this year, in October 2023.

This package is harmed in the scenario for CMD check using sp evolution status 2 (substitute use of rgdal with sf for projection/transformation/CRS) and absence of retiring packages from the library path because of strong dependence on CoordinateCleaner. No response yet to issue raised there last year: https://github.com/ropensci/CoordinateCleaner/issues/78. Please help the maintainer of that package to protect your package and workflows.

Thanks, @rsbivand! We appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention, and we'll monitor them closely. Also, we plan to lend a hand to the CoordinateCleaner team during this transition.
