That was done on initial install.  Below is the results of a
repeat.  I just installed the system on this (not my own)

Note that the download paths refer to simtel, which won't work.

C:\djgpp>pakke -q djdev
djdev 2.03 (binaries)
1 package(s) matched

djdev was just downloaded from delorie.com.  Maybe there is a
mixup on the mounted version there?
