Martin, my experience may only add to the confusion. When I upgraded to 2.11 on my office Mac I had a similar problem when loading lme4 from CRAN. However, I found the package on R-forge and successfully installed it. On trying the same procedure on my home Mac running 2.11.1, this approach fails with the following error (this differs from yours): > library(lme4) Loading required package: Matrix Loading required package: lattice
Attaching package: 'Matrix' The following object(s) are masked from 'package:base': det Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) : unable to load shared library '/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/library/lme4/libs/i386/lme4.so': dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/library/lme4/libs/i386/lme4.so, 6): Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libgfortran.2.dylib Referenced from: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/library/lme4/libs/i386/lme4.so Reason: image not found Error: package/namespace load failed for 'lme4' And you will not be able to load "arm" as this depends on "lme4".
