Hi there what's the current best-practice method for installing all our favourite spatial packages on a Mac?
Is there anything simpler or more recent than: http://codealamode.blogspot.co.uk/2012/08/installing-rgdal-for-r-on-mac.html I'm after installing rgdal, raster, maptools, rgeos, but unfortunately I don't have a Mac to try it on - I'm trying to get instructions for distributing to people before a workshop. The easiest way for Ubuntu/Linux at the moment appears to be to install R from CRAN's ubuntu packaging and then add Michael Rutter's PPA "ppa:marutter/c2d4u" to your sources. This then lets you get rgdal with "apt-get install r-cran-rgdal" (or a similar one-liner) which gets all the gdal library dependencies. But when I have to do this on Macs I find the instructions have always changed since last time.
