You can see that there's a problem with program loading lme4. A litlle
sluething around revelaed that it's the wrong version. When I attmept to
install I get the warnings above.
Also tried the apt-get command at the console to no avail:
vm-cook@GRNTv01:~$ sudo apt-get install lme4
[sudo] password for vm-cook:

E: Unable to locate package lme4

What next?
Scott,
All the R packages from CRAN in the repository have an "r-cran-" prefix.
So the correct command would be:
sudo apt-get install r-cran-lme4
Not sure if you are using Debian or Ubuntu, so you mileage may vary with
the above command. If you are using Ubuntu, you could install the
cran2deb4ubuntu PPA which has the latest lme4. (http://tiny.cc/c2d4u).
