So you had to hand edit things? The script should have defined all of 
the needed env vars in custom_stone.env and other than $GS_HOME you 
shouldn't have to mess with .profile files ... which env vars did you 
define in .profile files?

... and this is the edit that I (thought) I had asked Jupiter to make ...

I was busy with family (my birthday:) over the weekend, so I apologize 
for not getting involved earlier ....  I appreciate the fact that you 
and Jupiter took the time to figure things out ....

I'm kinda concerned that without making changes to the README and 
scripts, the next person to try will also fail, so any of the manual 
steps that both you and Jupiter took need to be addressed ...

AFAICT, there are two errors

 1. realpath on Mac --- are you running on a Mac or a LInux box or ???
 2.   the unconditional `updateGsDevKit -gdtcs` ... which is only needed
    if you are going to do development in an existing GsDevKit_home
    installation ...

I'm developing on Linux, so realpath was not a problem (Jupiter do you 
have a fix, or are you waiting for me to patch the problem) ... and I 
skipped the `updateGsDevKit -gdtcs` step when I was doing my testing 
(without trying the full process on a virgin clone) and things ran 
smoothly for me ...

Sooo if there are other problems I guess I need to be able to reproduce 
them in my environment so that I can figure out what needs to be fixed ...

Also we should probably take this discussion over to the issue_260 
discussion list[1]
