Thanks for checking, Peter. When I restart gretl, first I don't get a crash
on entering "pkg install DP.gfn", either. However, when I have both the local
package listing window and the window with the server listing open, then
typing the command leads to a reproducible crash.
Ah, I can reproduce that here. It's now fixed in git. The problem
was specific to having the server listing window open when issuing
the "pkg install" command. There was an error in the code that
scanned the server window to update the status string for the
package in question to make it say "Up to date".
