Since you believe that now 7z and wget are working, which is indicated by the listing of addons appearing, to clean up the local repository, delete the "addons" folder in the J folder. (Or rename to addons1 and delete later).
Run Package Manager and the list of adons should be refilled. Now try selecting a few addons and Install. The recent version of base library 6.1.25 contains code to identify mode issues when installing addons. To remove addon simply delete it's folder and Rebuild Repository. To Rebuild Repository use such menu item from Tools. The addons folder should stay where it is by default, as far as I know. At least for the time to make sure it's working. --- Don Guinn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > OK. I got the base library up to date and the Package Manager runs.
