I just downloaded it (21 mb - about two hours !), but the "Runme" install script just
returned "error: Nothing new to install."

I don't have time to look at the problem in detail right now, but in the meantime if anyone
else has experienced and got around this install error, I'd be appreciative if they'd post
how to get around it.
