R help - Feb 2013 - mountain lion install, error message

Hi, I have been trying to install R on my mac which is running mountain lion. It
is partially working, but one error message I am getting is:

Error in function ()  : object '.activeModel' not found. 

I cannot find anything on this by googling. It appears, for example, when I try
to 'add observation statistics to data' under the 'models' menu
in R commander.

I wondered if anyone might have any idea what this could mean, and how I might
try and fix my installation. I have installed the various recommended additional
packages, and uninstalled and re-installed R around 5 times now. I have had
exactly the same performance after each installation. I'm rather at a loss
at where to turn next to get things working properly.

Thanks. 

Claire.

Perhaps you would benefit from joining R-sig-mac, and/or perusing their
archives.

Dear Claire,

This error is due to a bug in the previous version of the Rcmdr package; it
is fixed in the current version on CRAN, version 1.9-4. Simply reinstall the
Rcmdr package from CRAN and verify that you have the correct version.

I hope this helps,
 John
