Cannot pool fitted mixed effects models

[studerus]

Pooling multiple fitted mixed effects models results in the following error message: Error: No tidy method for objects of class lme

Here's a minimal example:

library(mice)
library(nlme)
dat <- nhanes
dat$id <- 1:5
imp <- mice(dat, maxit = 2, m = 2)
fit <- with(imp, exp = lme(bmi ~ age, random = ~1|id))
pool(fit)

I have already installed the developmental versions of mice and broom from github, but it didn't solve the problem.

Thanks. Please add

library(broom.mixed)

and then it should work.

Patrick D'Onofrio alerted me that library(broom.mixed) also solved error an Error in as.data.frame.default(data): cannot coerce class '"mids"' to a data.frame.
