HELP

I am trying to install the ?rms? package in my Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.5. When I try to load the library I get this error:
library(rms)
Error in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]) : 
  there is no package called ?mvtnorm?
Error: package or namespace load failed for ?rms?

I tried installing the dependencies with 

install.packages("rms",dependencies = TRUE)

I also tried

install.packages("rms", repos=c("http://rstudio.org/_packages", "http://cran.rstudio.com?))

However, I keep getting the same error.
Did you try reinstalling the mvtnorm package?

I can confirm this behavior. I load rms from startup in my .Rprofile file and if mvtrnorm is missing I also get:

Error: package or namespace load failed for ?rms? in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]):
 there is no package called ?mvtnorm?

To me it signals a needt to let the package maintainer know about the issue.

The dependence seems to come from rms -> multcomp -> mvtnorm.

Just FYI, I've had a lot of students in the last 2-weeks reporting errors like this about other packages with dependencies that have their own dependencies.

The full chain doesn't appear to be being followed.

For some, on Macs I think, they also have the problem of install.packages() trying to install a source version which is newer than the current CRAN binary, and then failing because the required compiler isn't present.

Also, sometimes a package will get listed as being installed one or more times (this happened for "crayon" last week) , then not ending up installed at all.

There was a strange issue with the "stringi" package being missing despite multiple install.packages() calls by students to the top level package that ultimately wanted it.

Most solved by reading the error, manually installing (forcing binary if necessary) the missing package, and repeating until done.

Of course this leads to lots of "it's broken"  and "no... it didn't work" hassles :-)

Best, tim (currently happy the mac TZ warning has gone away in 3.4.4 :-) )
