I have run into this problem - but getting the code from cvs I can't get
past the 'setup.sh' stage, and the last snapshot is from the end Feb.
Any suggestions on how to proceed?  Anyone know when a package will be
available?

Details of the problem with setup.sh - I get the menu, but no matter
what options I choose, and hit ok, nothing happens except the menu shows
up again.  If I hit cancel, it exits, but I can't run "make":

  make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

Ideas?  What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!
