Well, upon inspection of the various directories, everything seemed to
be there, so I ran the interpreter and it seemed to work.  Evaluated a
simple expression at the >>> prompt, imported a module and ran its
function.  So, I don't know what part of the install failed.  If
anyone can tell me where to find the various scripts that the MPKG
runs, that would help.

Thanks,
Mark
