rKIN depends on 'maptools', 'rgeos' using rgeos::gArea rgeos::gContainsProperly rgeos::gIntersection rgeos::gUnaryUnion as found by pkgapi, bulk imported in NAMESPACE. The use of maptools is almost certainly spurious, and should be sp. Alterantives for rgeos functions can be found in https://github.com/r-spatial/evolution/blob/main/pkgapi_230305_refs.csv. Please fix best by June, latest October 2023.
