  All those utilities in the unix-alike directory in your PATH have got in the
way and messed up the postinstall scripts is my guess.  Remove those OUTILS
dirs from your path and re-run setup; just click right through on "install
from local dir", set everything at the top level of the package category tree
to "reinstall" and it should complete whatever it didn't finish last time.

    cheers,
