Rgdal Installation Difficulty on Ubuntu 16.04 Lts

rgdal installation difficulty on ubuntu 16.04 LTS

Here is what I use to install on Ubuntu 16.04 with the latest R-cran PPA repositories:

sudo add-apt-repository 'deb https://mirror.ibcp.fr/pub/CRAN/bin/linux/ubuntu xenial/' 
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys E084DAB9
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libgdal1-dev libproj-dev libgeos-dev
sudo apt-get install r-base-core

You can use another CRAN mirror depending on your location:
https://cran.r-project.org/mirrors.html

Then, install.packages("rgdal") should work.

If you want the latest spatial libraries on Ubuntu LTS versions, you can also use ubuntugis PPA: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntugis/+archive/ubuntu/ppa

sudo add-apt-repository 'deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntugis/ppa/ubuntu xenial main' 
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 314DF160
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

More trouble Installing rgdal on ubuntu 16.04

The only way to solve this was to completely remove anaconda installation, following the instructions on https://conda.io/docs/user-guide/install/linux.html#uninstalling-anaconda-or-miniconda with some minor modifications for ubuntu 16.04, you have to open a terminal and remove the anaconda install directory:

rm -rf ~/anaconda3

rm -rf ~/.condarc ~/.conda ~/.continuum

Edit ~/.bashrc to remove the anaconda directory from your PATH environment variable.

After that the installation of rgdal

install.packages("rgdal")

goes without problems.

trouble in installing rgdal on ubuntu 16.04

I followed the answer of this post

rgdal installation error on ubuntu 17.10

error: gdal-config not found

Is gdal installed ? ....

Solution : sudo apt install libgdal-dev : Provides /usr/bin/gdal-config

Unable to install ‘sf’ R package on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

This worked for me. Using

sudo aptitude install libgdal-dev

and then

devtools::install_github("r-spatial/sf")

rgdal installed in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, but R 3.5 not recognized it

The solution was to uninstall QGIS, and install GDAL first and re-install QGIS after.

Finally, the rGDAL was possible to be installed in R.
