I did download it several times before posting.
--------------------------
Is see it has been modified very, very recently.
Downloaded it again, again, and it works fine now.
Thanks.
Sorry to have to bother with 1.4, but 2.3 doesn't run on some SIS systems.
-------------------------
I found the problem.
Somehow my 1.x local repository had the 2.x bash.tcz
I don't know how that happened since it is synced to distro.ibiblio.org using lftp.
I was synced yesterday, but I ran the script again. I showed 2 files changed in the 1.x tcz directory.
At any rate it is now working.
