在使用 lme4 和 lmerTest 时，我偶然发现了一个影响 Mac OS 版本的 R 3.3.2（以及 .3！）的问题。

lmerTest 产生错误：

Satterthwaite 近似值的计算错误。返回 lme4 包的输出 从 lme4 返回的摘要 在 lmerTest 中发生了一些计算错误

MacOS 下的 R 3.2 和 Windows 下的任何 R 版本都不会出现此问题。但是，这不是安装问题，因为我在重新安装 R 后以及在另一台 Mac 上都重现了该错误。

这是示例代码：

 library(lme4)

#' start of data creation

经过反复尝试，代码在 R3.3.3 下工作，虽然我的系统没有改变。我是在做梦吗？有点超自然...我很困惑。抱歉打扰了。

这不是一个真正的答案，但评论有点长......

我无法在以下任何一种环境下复制它：

R version 3.3.2 (2016-10-31)
Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin13.4.0 (64-bit)
Running under: OS X El Capitan 10.11.6
[1] lmerTest_2.0-33 lme4_1.1-12     Matrix_1.2-8   
(also tried with Matrix 1.2-7)

R Under development (unstable) (2017-02-13 r72168)
Platform: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (64-bit)
Running under: Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS
lmerTest_2.0-33 lme4_1.1-13     Matrix_1.2-8

没有可复制性，很难排除故障。有点难以相信这是特定于 Sierra 的，但发生了奇怪的事情。

我将大胆猜测并建议您尝试将包降级Matrix到版本 1.2-7（如此处所述），尽管症状 [崩溃] 和可疑平台 [32 位操作系统] 是不同的。

或者，您可以尝试深入挖掘此处lmerTest描述的内容以查看发生了什么，尽管特定上下文再次不同（您的模型拟合不是单一的）。

CRAN 确实检查了 64 位 Sierra 下的包，但检查 lmerTest（和 for lme4）在这个平台上没有显示任何错误......
