Error in article

Via https://ropensci.r-universe.dev/builds we see a failure for the article, locally I get this error:

Quitting from lines 128-144 [GHCN-precipitation] (FedData.Rmd)

Hmm, support for FlatGeoBuf is built into GDAL >= v3.1. The current release of GDAL is v3.8.1. Would you mind confirming what version of GDAL you have installed on your build machine? My guess is that I should up the system requirement to GDAL (>= 3.1.0), as FedData is now storing the GHCN station inventory as a FlatGeoBuf file.

@jeroen any insight? Thanks!

We use the libraries that are included with ubuntu-22.04.

@bocinsky friendly reminder (tricky if you can't reproduce it) 😸

I think this is working now, but we'll see if it stays that way!

Indeed, thank you!!
