Thanks for the tip.  I always seem to forget the obvious.  I attribute it to old age - that's my
excuse anyway.

The interesting thing is that the sl-stormpkg package does not include Gaby (libdpkg.so.0) as a
dependancy and, consequently, sl-stormpkg installs without a murmur and then won't run.  Having
installed Gaby it still won't run and fails with an 'undefined symbol'.  I have now removed both
packages as I was only mildly interested.
