Hi, Marion,
 
I believe the package FlexMix provides a more generalized version of
finite mixture modeling than is found in mclust/mclust02.
Please see:

Subject: [R] mulitmodal distributions
 
Hello, 
 
I see that "mclust" is a pacakge that handles fitting mixtures of
normals.
Are there any other packages out that that can handle mixtures of gammas
or
other exponentials? 
 
Additionally, are there any packages out there that can fit bimodal
distributions without mixtures? i.e., Cobb et al. 1983 using moment
recursion relations? 
 
Thank you!
