Please remove dependencies on **rgdal**, **rgeos**, and/or **maptools** #110

Open rsbivand opened 1 year ago

rsbivand commented 1 year ago

This package, prettymapr and rosm depend on (depends, imports or suggests) raster and one or more of the retiring packages rgdal, rgeos or maptools (https://r-spatial.org/r/2022/04/12/evolution.html). Since raster 3.6.3, all use of external FOSS library functionality has been transferred to terra, making the retiring packages very likely redundant. It would help greatly if you could remove dependencies on the retiring packages as soon as possible.

Agreed! The 'rosm' package is the main problem here but I'll bump this on my 'to do while kids are napping' list more so than I have been.

Does the deps branch of rosm look like maturing to release soonish? June would be very helpful!

paleolimbot commented 1 year ago

It looks like I did this already but just forgot to release! https://github.com/paleolimbot/rosm/blob/master/DESCRIPTION#L14-L34

So hope submitting will go smoothly! There will be some churn on CRAN as 4.3.0 is due tomorrow.

rsbivand commented 1 year ago

@paleolimbot Any chance of getting rosm submitted soon, maybe before July 21, when CRAN submissions take the summer maintenance break?

rsbivand commented 11 months ago

@paleolimbot prettymapr suggests maptools and rgdal, which were archived two days ago, so please do move to submit an updated version as soon as possible.
