[R] Installing RGDAL on CentOS v.6.2

[Eric Brown]

Dear Shouro,

I can confirm that I have installed GDAL (and RGDAL) on CentOS 
6.4, 6.5,
and 6.6.

But quite frankly, these systems have such old versions of 
software that
I spent a fair amount of time compiling everything up from tar.gz.

This is exhausting, so I spent some time learning NetBSD's 
pkgsrc--and
now recommend this wonderful package manager to anyone caught in a
situation where they don't have root privileges, but need to bring 
an
old CentOS to have modern versions of software and all its 
dependencies.

Best regards,
Eric
