When I followed your instructions to upgrade my existing (working) j902
installation to beta-n
(using jqt, not jcon, but it has worked before)…

   load'pacman'
   'upgrade'jpkg'jengine'

…went through fine.

But when I re-started jqt I got the following message:

|nonce error: boot

|   bind=:2     :'x@(y"_)'

|[-199] /Applications/j902/system/main/stdlib.ijs

|value error: boxdraw_j_

|   0 0$    boxdraw_j_ 0

No JVERSION -- it was not created.

jcon gave a similar message.

I'm running macOS Catalina (10.15.7) on the affected machine.

Might this be an oversight and easily fixed,
or was my existing j902 installation (beta-d, I think) just too old for a
simple upgrade of jengine to work?

Are other people getting a similar message, or is my installation broken in
a unique way?
