Hello,

I recently bought a new Macbook Pro and installed R via a disk image from an
older computer - it seems to work fine. I then installed the package "siar",
tried to load it via the library command and received the following messages
(note the "mvtnorm" package did not appear to load correctly):

trying URL

Loading required package: mvtnorm
Error in library(pkg, character.only = TRUE, logical.return = TRUE, lib.loc
= lib.loc) : 
  ‘mvtnorm’ is not a valid installed package

I originally tried the Berkeley CRAN, removed the package, and then tried
the UCLA CRAN and had the same problem.

I then went back to my old computer and loaded the library and did not have
any problems, the "mvtnorm" package loaded fine, followed by two others:
"coda" and "MASS".

Any help would be most appreciated. I did not have any problems loading
"siar" on my old Macbook Pro and the library should be compatible with both
operating systems: old = 10.5.8, new = 10.7.3.

Thank you,

Gary
