Hi Roger,

the CI tests in Debian uncovered some conflict between recent rgdal and
version 2.0 of sp.  As you either can see in the bug report that was
filed[1] or in a recent CI build log[2] it fails with

In CRS("+init=epsg:4326") :> sp.tr <- spTransform(sp, CRS("+init=epsg:3857"))
 sf required for evolution_status==2L
Error in spTransform(sp, CRS("+init=epsg:3857")) : 
  source crs creation failed: Invalid PROJ string syntax
Calls: spTransform -> spTransform

It would be great if you could adapt rgdal to the latest version of sp.

Kind regards
    Andreas.
