I managed to use k package manager and did the install one at a time starting 
with the developer package. I did try command line, didn't work. On that 
particular install I learned my 101 things.

If you do it right the first time you've learn one thing. If you get it wrong 
a hundred times and then get it right you've learned 101 things.

In Windows I'd learned milliions of things:)
