Since the recent update to package lme4, I now get an error when trying to
print the results using lmer to obtain model estimates for anything other
than a liner mixed model. For example,
(fm1 <- lmer(decrease ~ treatment + (1|rowpos) +
(1|colpos),family=poisson(),
data=OrchardSprays))


Produces the error:

Error in checkSlotAssignment(object, name, value) : Assignment of an object of class "NULL" is not valid for slot
"frame" in an object of class "summary.lmer"; is(value, "data.frame") is not
TRUE
Error in show(new("summary.lmer", object, useScale = TRUE, showCorrelation =
FALSE)) : Unable to find the argument "object" in selecting a method for
function "show"



Yes, the recent version has also some inconsistancy with the mlmRev package, perhaps a bug .... Doug Bates certainly knows better.


Version 0.95-1 has not had this problem (but others, I think).
If you want to "downgrade" for the meantime,
check out CRAN/bin/windows/contrib/2.0/last/
with "old" versions of Matrix, lme4 and friends.

Quoting Douglas Bates after a private message (last Friday) on this topic:

[...]
I must change the lmer methods for GLMMs to correspond to the new lmer
structure.  I won't be able to fix this immediately as I leave early
tomorrow morning for Montreal to teach a short course.  Look for a new
lme4 package by midweek next week.

Best,

Renaud
