@jeroen - i’ve started having problems installing old versions of rgdal from source as part of a packrat workflow.
As a reproducible example the following code will now error due to missing cpp libraries: devtools::install_version(“rgdal”, version = “1.3-6”).
As I understand rgdal runs an download script for the required cpp libraries for rgdal to compile (from here) and this has been working successfully for a good year.
It looks like there has been a renaming convention in this repo in anticipation for new rtools. I understand that the downloads work on releases and from what I can tell this renaming may have over ridden the old version.
Can I ask - is this expected and what is the best course of action.
Note using rtools35 with extsoft goodies installed.
