First, this is not the list to discuss MacOS X binaries: that is R-sig-mac.

Second, only one person really knows about the situation with package binaries, the person who produces them (equally true for Windows and for Mac OS X). And that person does not read R-help, having asked for such issues to be discussed on R-sig-mac.

I very much doubt that this will be solved this week: the failure of lme4 in its checks on Mac OS X has been going on for years.

Dear group,

I have noticed that the MacOS X binary for lme4 is not available on
CRAN at the moment. I am aware that it may be possible to install from
source but I am not very familiar with that procedure and would rather
avoid it. But I need the package for a statistics course next week. So
can anybody give an update about the situation with the MacOS X
binaries? Will it be resolved within the next days or should I rather
install from source (in that case: is my assumption correct that it is
possible or will it fail (I read the the check log and it seems that
there is some error ?)

Installation will work but package checking will fail, at least on an i386 Mac.

Thank you for any advise or help
