****  Installation failed. Aborting package creation.

It seems to be complaining about a problem in the Prolog code, but I compiled it fine on another machine, which was 32-bit, not 64-bit.

Update: After deleting the folder, re-downloading and trying to compile, I get a different error. I’m wondering if it’s a case of not checking if a library is installed, and failing because of it?

    Since one of the modules kept it from compiling (chr), I added it to the export DISABLE_PKGS line, it compiled and ran fine. 🙂
