Suggestion for install URL install.packages('OpenMx', repos='http://openmx.psyc.virginia.edu/testing/')
Instead of having users access a blind URL and run a a blind script, i wonder if a one-liner like this might be easier to follow for people?
Suggested new instruction
install.packages('OpenMx', repos='http://openmx.psyc.virginia.edu/testing/')Current
source("http://openmx.psyc.virginia.edu/getNewOpenMx.R")
# which runs this silently
repos <- c('http://openmx.psyc.virginia.edu/testing/')
install.packages(pkgs=c('OpenMx'), repos=repos)

Incorporating OpenMx in documentation examples of other packages.
I'm on a grant whose goal is to develop reliable kinship links to facilitate BG and other developmental studies with the NLSY samples (eg, http://www.bls.gov/nls/nlsy79.htm). We're developing an R package (cran.r-project.org/web/packages/NlsyLinks/) that assists with many of the common manipulations and analyses. We're targeting all BG researchers who are interested in the NLSY, including those with limited experience in R.
OpenMx seems like a natural fit for our examples, but I'm hesitant to use it in our basic documentation, because of two deployment issues:

Installation problem with OpenMx 1.1.1 with R 2.13.1 in Fedora 15
I usually have problems in installing OpenMx in Fedora 15 with
source('http://openmx.psyc.virginia.edu/getOpenMx.R')
My guess is that Fedora 15 uses gcc4.6 while OpenMx comes with gcc4.4. The following is the error message:
checking for inst/npsol/linux/x86/gcc4.6/libnpsol.a... no
configure: error: npsol library not found
ERROR: configuration failed for package ‘OpenMx’

Installation problem with R2.10.1
Sorry folks. I've not been using R or OpenMx for about a year and am very rusty. Just tried to update to latest OpenMx. Seemed to work and I can see the folder for OpenMx in my R library directory, but I get error message if I require(OpenMx). So console is as follows:

Hi I tried the method provided by Horn to solve the problem. However, it does not work. I still receive the error message like:
