Hi,
Just d/led it and tried it out. I had a couple of old versions of 0.2.x
(and still have 0.2.1 installed but trashed the others - some rc's). The
computer is an iMac with 20 GB of RAM, 2.7 GHz quad i5.
When I asked about the Pkg.status(), it came up with an error and similar
for PKG.installed() and Pkg.update(). I copy the output below (not too big,
I hope) I can't figure out what if anything I did "wrong" and did not find
anything about problems on the Mac -- TIA for any help
