[Yn] n raco pkg install: missing dependencies missing packages: base It prompted me to install "base" as a dependency. For 5.3.5. Really, the "main-distribution" package, "base" --- doesn't 5.3.5 already have the equivalent of "base"? That didn't seem right, so I chose "n". If I had chosen "Y", would a "base" package have been installed for 5.3.5? ____________________ Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users
