Hallo Christopher, >>Could it be that setup cannot handle the version string "p4-1"?

It isn't as far as > my understanding is concerned and I'd lke to rectify that. I don't > see any way to unambiguously parse something like that. It is still dubious for me. Setup was able to fetch it from the server during 'Download only' with version number '1'. But when doing an install from local directory it wasn't offered anymore in the chooser. IIRC Setup is able to install packages even if there is no version in the name string (e.g. foo.tar.gz). Gerrit -- =^..^=
