[R-sig-ME] Error in glmmADMB: no PSV file found -- link to known fix is broken

[Ben Bolker]

   It's a bit more work, but your best bet is probably to try to set up
ADMB on your own machine.  Hopefully you can install the ADMB IDE from
here http://www.admb-project.org/downloads/#binaries ; if you have
trouble, we might refer you the ADMB mailing list.

   I would suggest trying glmmTMB (which is more self-contained)
instead, but at present it doesn't have the MCMC option ...  I might try
to hack up a demo though ...  (I just did, see

https://rawgit.com/glmmTMB/glmmTMB/master/glmmTMB/vignettes/mcmc.html

and the corresponding rmd file in the vignettes directory of the
repository ...)

  cheers
