Well, that was me. I needed a Windows system to test a problem in the 1516 release and arnauld and the adjacent Windows boxes were in use for collaboratory testing. Ryle only had the 1442 release.
Clearly, I should have chosen the "move old installation" instead of "delete old installation" installation option. That was retarded on my part.
It might have been prudent on your part, once a significant amount of time had been invested in changes, to move the modified version of Chimera to another location. It would be misleading anyway to leave the modified version as the "1442 release". [Nonetheless, I take the blame here -- just a suggestion].
So now I know what happened. Release 1442 was installed on ryle in a temporary directory (by Eric :-)) to compare against 1516. Both were on ryle, but the shortcuts were changed to 1442 because it was installed last. So a reinstall wasn't needed. Too late now. Maybe Eric could add ryle to the systems that are backed up -- just a suggestion. Greg
