That is only part of the problem. Updating catalogues is OK but if an existing
system suddenly stops working because of the update with no explanation it will
be difficult for most to work out what has happenned. By a system of
elimination I will now work out what has to be done to fix the catalogues. The
star catalogues are broken into two sections on normal installations where the
larger catalogues with the starconfig.json are kept in a common area while the
distribution catalogues are in the program area. If you modify the common area
you will always have problems of this sort of incompatability.
