[R] rgdal in 3.5 fails(?)

[J C Nash]

I just tested that it installs in Linux Mint 18.3, but I've had similar install problems recently where
I had to explicitly install some libraries in the OS. In some cases there were hints. I don't see anything
here that I recognize, but I do know in the past I've needed to install libgdal-dev.
