Try install.packages("ggalt", dependencies=TRUE). That should be the default behavior for install.packages(). ggalt uses the proj4 package (and that's where your issues are really coming from, not my pkg). proj4 requires thelibprojlibrary. This may help with getting proj4 setup on your system.

Thanks! install.packages("ggalt", dependencies = T) didn't work, but install.packages("proj4") first did the trick.

I confirm the answer of carbonmetrics on ubuntu 16.04

With LinuxMint 18.1 and R version 3.4.3 (2017-11-30) , I had to follow this steps:

1º - sudo aptitude install libproj-dev libgdal-dev 2º - install.packages("proj4", dependencies=TRUE) 3º - install.packages("ggalt", dependencies = T)

[jongmmm]

In Cent OS, sudo yum install proj-devel solved the problem for me

[matteodelucchi]

While installing proj4 with: >install.packages("proj4", dependencies=TRUE) I got this error: configure: error: libproj and/or proj_api.h not found in standard search locations.

Following the procedure of @fodassecaralho (thanks :+1: ) could solve the prob with R version 3.5.3 (2019-03-11) Running under: Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS

1º - sudo aptitude install libproj-dev libgdal-dev 2º - install.packages("proj4", dependencies=TRUE) 3º - install.packages("ggalt", dependencies = T)

This is the exact answer that works perfectly for me

I am having the same issue trying to built proj4 for R/4.0.2 on a CentOS 7.9 system. I have installed the proj and proj-devel packages which puts things in standard places (i.e. /usr/include and /usr/lib64). However i still keep getting this error:

checking proj_api.h usability... yes checking proj_api.h presence... yes checking for proj_api.h... yes checking whether we are using the GNU C++ compiler... yes checking whether g++ -std=gnu++11 accepts -g... yes checking for pj_init_plus in -lproj... no checking for proj_create_crs_to_crs in -lproj... no checking whether to require PROJ6 API... no checking whether to use PROJ6 API... yes configure: error: libproj and/or proj.h/proj_api.h not found in standard search locations.

*** Install PROJ library and if necessary set PKG_CPPFLAGS/PKG_LIBS accordingly. ERROR: configuration failed for package ‘proj4’

• removing ‘/data/R-4.0.2/lib64/R/library/proj4’

Even if i set PKG_CPPFLAGS and PKG_LIBS to point to the standard spot, it still fails to build. Any thoughts?

[andrewrech]

@MrDotOne any luck? I ran into the same issue

[KayShelton]

@andrewrech and @MrDotOne I am running into a similar issue. Just wondered if you have tried installing gdal (in step 1 of https://github.com/hrbrmstr/ggalt/issues/22#issuecomment-370530510)?

I am resisting installing gdal as I don't want netcdf library conflicts on the machine I am currently on, but curious to know if that would solve the issue.

[andrewrech]

@KayShelton, yes, I tried installing

• proj (4.8.0-4.el7)
• proj-devel (4.8.0-4.el7)
• gdal (1.11.4-3.el7)
• gdal-devel (1.11.4-3.el7)

confirming that the requested file was installed, and configuring PKG_CPPFLAGS/PKG_LIBS, but I receive the same error message as @MrDotOne.

@hrbrmstr could you perhaps point the three of us in the right direction?

Thanks

@ CentOS this helped me through:

sudo yum install proj.x86_64 \
proj-static.x86_64 \
proj-devel.x86_64 \
gdal-devel.x86_64 \
gdal-libs.x86_64 \
gdal.x86_64 \
openssl-devel.x86_64 \
openssl-libs.x86_64 \
openssl.x86_64 \
sqlite-devel.x86_64 \
libtiff-devel.x86_64

Probably there are a few not needed.

I presume that @jongmmm had either sqlite-devel.x86_64 or libtiff-devel.x86_64 already installed. At least one of these two is also required to resolve the issue.

[andrewrech]

Thanks a lot @yhoogstrate. The answer was sqlite-devel!
