Please remove dependencies on **rgdal**, **rgeos**, and/or **maptools**
rsbivand opened this issue · comments
This package depends on (depends, imports or suggests) raster and one or more of the retiring packages rgdal, rgeos or maptools (https://r-spatial.org/r/2022/04/12/evolution.html). Since raster 3.6.3, all use of external FOSS library functionality has been transferred to terra, making the retiring packages very likely redundant. It would help greatly if you could remove dependencies on the retiring packages as soon as possible.

is a recent check log from running under _SP_EVOLUTION_STATUS_=2 without retiring r-spatial packages (suggested in this package) on the library path. The minimal correction is to check that the package namespaces can be loaded, and if not, do not run those parts of the examples. It would be safer in the longer term to replace retiring r-spatial packages with active r-spatial/rspatial packages (see https://r-spatial.org/r/2022/04/12/evolution.html, https://r-spatial.org/r/2022/12/14/evolution2.html). This was with version 0.13.0, so probably 0.14.0 will clear the problem:
