Here's how I ran FlightGear, but it did not like the command:

$ FlightGear/projects/VC90/Win32/Release/fgfs
--fg-root=/home/jon/flightgear/fgdata/


Base package check failed ... Found version [none] at:
/home/jon/flightgear/fgdata/
Please upgrade to version: 2.0.0
Hit a key to continue...

I just downloaded the base package today as directed via git.

What am I doing wrong?

Jon
