hi, I'm a beginner with Racket and ran into this when trying to install
socket from within DrRacket:

I've read something on the list that said:
the problem was that *Planet* (or `raco setup') would drop
entries from "cache.rktd" when the corresponding package has "info.ss"
instead of "info.rkt". Of course, almost all *Planet* packages currently
use "info.ss"
And though socket does use an info.ss, I'm not sure if this is the
problem here. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
thanks, George
