Hi Ryan, Sorry I missed your email.
Things were blocking and I really had to move forward. I therefore opted for an fresh install. Everything went well, obviously. But this means that we'll probably never know the origin of the problem I encountered. You spent some of your time providing me help and trying to figure out what happened and I am very grateful to you: many thanks!
