[R-sig-ME] unable to install LME4 in R 2.6.2 on an Intel Mac

[Douglas Bates]

What version of R do you have installed on the Intel Mac?

I suggest you take the problem to the R-SIG-Mac list.  It appears that
there is a mismatch between the libraries on the machine that
generated the Mac binary package and your machine.

Needing to install certain versions of libraries in /usr/local is one
of the reasons that I don't bother trying to run R on a Mac, other
than for the vanilla stuff.
