I haven't had a mistmatch problem either but I still comment that it seems
very long winded to install these components compared with all other
components I've installed.. I just wonder why it's so hard to have the
install work with one click. I know other components install in strange ways
too e.g. biuld the packages then install them etc but some .. you just
install and that's it.
just curious is all
