If you add a \ to the end of the download path with the 1.7 installer,
packages fail to download properly and the installer terminates with an
error. I finally realized it was just an amateur mistake in the
installer code and tried it without the \, and it worked fine. Adding a
\ works in the production installer, so it should be patched up in 1.7
as well. Thanks.
