...try it again... ...eyes wide in surprise... I was sure that I had tried it and that one conflicted with the other. I had written the above sure that when I had tried it that a conflicts or breaks or other dependency had caused one to push the other out. But obviously I was completely mistaken. I must have had some other combination that was conflicting when I tested it previously. I had tried it before and thought that was the result of the test. Sorry for injecting that incorrect noise. [Side note: Actually installing both will create a runtime install error due to both trying to start the daemon on port 80. But that is a different and I don't think too important issue.] Bob
