Shree, Thank you for your reply. I should have gone to bed (it was like 2 AM my time on a work night) instead of continuing to bang my head.
When I saw your message this morning, I was thinking, "What tesstrain folder? There's no tesstrain folder in the repo." Which was exactly when it occurred to me that tesstrain is a separate repo and needs checked out individually. All is well. It's working. The phrase "tesstrain" doesn't show up on any of the (4) Compiling and Installation pages. There's lots of mention about installing the dependencies to support training, but no mention about actually installing it. Do you think that's worthy of filing an issue? I'm probably not the only bonehead out there.
