Hi again, I have no idea why, but using the package now works?!?!?!?!? The only thing I’ve done, afaik, since the last time when it didn’t work is to try creating a project with a directory still called ’satriage’ but in a different parent directory - and removing an old ~/.netbeans/ directory (which appeared to be a leftover from NB 6.9 I discovered when trying to find anything ’nb’. :-(
Anyway - my problem went away, but if anyone can tell me how to change Netbeans logging level globally, I’d appreciate the info. I’ll use that the next time I encounter something I can’t figure out.
