Package ‘lavaan.survey’ was removed from the CRAN repository.

[Lincoln choudhry]

I wanted to use the lavvan.survey package. However, it is removed from the repository. 

Please guide on alternate packages or ways to incorporate survey design in SEM

Looking forward to kind response

Regards

CRAN is telling you where you can find the package:  https://cran.r-project.org/package=lavaan.survey

Click on the archive link: https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/lavaan.survey/

Download the latest version, say, to your ~/Downloads folder, then install directly from that source file.  Or you can install from the 

install.packages("~/Downloads/lavaan.survey_1.1.3.1.tar.gz", type = "source", repos = NULL)

But lavaan itself can now handle both survey weights and clustering (read arguments on ?lavaan help page).  However, it does not account for sampling strata.

One other aspect of the complex survey designs that library(survey) accounts for is weight calibration (survey::calibrate() or survey::rake()).

Do you know what broke in `lavaan.survey`? Of course there's new stuff in R 4.3.1... but looking at the error output, my sense is that the test results matched an exact expected number on Mac but failed on Linux and Windows. It may be a matter of relaxing tolerance for accuracy; see https://testthat.r-lib.org/reference/equality-expectations.html.
