I can't see Hmisc in the CRAN (binaries) list in the Package Installer 
either, although it's there in the CRAN (sources) list. I downloaded the 
OS X binary directly from 
http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/universal/contrib/r-release/Hmisc_3.4-2.tgz
and that installed fine.

Olaf,

the packages are available from the main CRAN server (both via  
install.packages() and the Package Installer), so it is probably a  
problem with the mirror you use. Please always try the main server  
when having problems with the package availability.

Thanks,
Simon
