Or, maybe (and I'm just guessing here)... It might have had something to do with what I said when I responded to your email an hour-and-a-half before this message from Igor "I immediately respond to every message without checking for any other responses" Pechtchanski. To quote: *** I repackaged some of the X .tar.bz2 yesterday to potentially work around *** a problem installing. The options that I used to tar confused setup.exe *** into thinking that the packages were empty. *** *** So, this is consistent with the symptoms of trying to install one of *** those packages. This should be rectified soon as the new versions of *** the tar files make it out to all of the mirrors. *** *** So, the solution is "try again". So, this isn't very mysterious at all. cgf
