RE: Lansa AS2 and Spooled Files -- install -- now compared to QU2install

I don't have the link, but Lukas Beeler has a blog going about his travails.
For what it's worth, in the 16 years I have worked with the several
generations of SEQUEL, I have never ever had to put on PTF's in order to
install it.

Perhaps that's because those developers have been betas and occasionally
alphas at the lab.

Other than the verification of pre-requisites, what is/was difficult
about installing QU2? Or does the smiley indicate an inside joke?

Aside from the beta [code drops], the only time I had problems was
the time when I applied PTFs during an IPL, found one had failed,
corrected that one PTF, and had no luck at all getting the product
going. Argh! But it turned out that the PTF that failed to apply, was
a pre-req to another PTF [which of course also did not apply], and that
other PTF was one of the pre-requisites to the QU2 -- Thus it was really
my own fault [i.e. a user error], because I _assumed_ rather than
verified, that the pre-requisites were actually installed.
