Hi Gustaf,
Issue persists with test on platform Linux Mint 18.3 running Cinnamon Linux
Desktop v3.6.7.
This OS is permissive with proprietary media, so not recommended for use with
servers.So, I'm just noting it here for the record in case someone is thinking
of running a local site/sdk. Wouldn't bother diagnosing any further.
As always, Gustaf, Thank you for your time and attention.Ben

Hi Gustaf,
I just confirmed that the tests work on an Ubuntu 18.04 system.
Prior tests were on a MintLinux laptop. There's no particular reason to
support Mint flavored Linux. Still, I'll report results of testing it
later today.
cheers,
Ben
