Thanks to the Caiman team for helping to diagnose the issue. 

The recommended formula to build text/AI install images is to specify to:
install entire and unconstrain osnet-incorporation

Doing one without the other can result in the ON and Install gate packages to 
be installed at different build versions. (that was the case I hit)

Thanks Caiman folks!
