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':

The Rforge is not mapping libgfortran correctly hence the error. You can work around that by installing gfortran from CRAN - but please read on instead.
And you will not be able to load "arm" as this depends on "lme4".
I have created extra "untested" repository for this, you can now install lme4 (CRAN version but ignoring check failures) using
install.packages("lme4",,"http://r.research.att.com/",type='mac.binary.untested')
Cheers, Simon
