| Thank you Dave.  Followed your suggestion  - well almost :-)

| Opening Tools I could see no Extension Manager but did see Packagas

I am sure it's the same animal, by a different name ;)

It sounds like you have done it correctly, so you should be OK.

Ah! That could be the difference. When I posted I checked with my
OpenSUSE edition, that I just happened to have handy at the time. I have
subsequently checked with the "official" edition on a Windows box and
that shows "Extension Manager" in the Tools menu. Maybe LinuxMINT
package their own edition, with slightly different wording in the menus.
