Thanks so much, Tobias. Unfortunately, setting up a Makevars file like you suggested simply leaves me with the same errors in R as I get in the command line:

Any further thoughts or suggestions on this, anyone?

Dear Roger,
if I remember correctly, this solved the problem for me:
on the top level of your user account, create a folder .R (if it?s not there yet);
in there, create a new text file named Makevars;
into this file, paste the following:
CC=clang
CXX=clang++ -arch x86_64 -ftemplate-depth-256 -stdlib=libstdc++
CXXFLAGS= -O3 -pedantic
hope it helps
Best,
Tobias

Subject: [R-sig-ME] installing lme4.0 on OS X 10.9
Hi all,
My Mac laptop died and I am now reinstalling all my packages from scratch. Previously I was using lme4_0.999999-2 and I figure that with a fresh install, I might as well install lme4.0 instead. But I am having trouble compiling it:
trying URL 'http://r-forge.r-project.org/src/contrib/lme4.0_0.999999-4.tar.gz'
Content type 'application/x-gzip' length 772384 bytes (754 Kb)
opened URL
==================================================
downloaded 754 Kb
* installing *source* package ?lme4.0? ...
** libs
llvm-gcc-4.2 -arch x86_64 -std=gnu99 -I/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/include -DNDEBUG -I/usr/local/include -I"/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.0/Resources/library/Matrix/include" -I"/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.0/Resources/library/stats/include" -fPIC -mtune=core2 -g -O2 -c init.c -o init.o
/bin/sh: llvm-gcc-4.2: command not found
This happens even after I install Xcode and also llvm-gcc42 on MacPorts;
Does anyone have any suggestions? FWIW:
R version 3.0.2 (2013-09-25)
Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin10.8.0 (64-bit)
locale:
[1] en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8/C/en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8
attached base packages:
[1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base
loaded via a namespace (and not attached):
[1] tools_3.0.2
I?ve also tried installing from the command line; this bottoms out in a different error:
$ R CMD build lme4.0

make: *** [lme4.so] Error 1
More generally, I?m having trouble figuring out what I should install in order to be able to compile lme4.0 from source.
Best & many thanks in advance for any guidance,
Roger Levy
