Apparently, yes.

But that's going to change -- one of the things that I thought about as I renovated my basement this weekend was how to check for that particular problem. My solution is to make it one of the steps in the Makefile, so that if it fails, the package isn't created.

Hey, if I'm still learning after ten years with the language, that's better than declaring I know everything there is to know and closing my mind. Did that once with C and had a pretty rude awakening. But that's a story for another time.

Thanks for the feedback.
