Doing so showed Blox gets filed in from

/opt/smalltalk-test/share/smalltalk/kernel/blox/tk

which does not exist. self checkError (Directory.st) fails with errno >=1
(File.st), throwing the exception.

The correct directory seems to be

/opt/smalltalk-test/share/smalltalk/blox/tk

I modified PkgLoader.st as attached and now the install works and packages
are filed in :-)

bash-2.05$ ls -l /opt/smalltalk/share/smalltalk/gst.im 
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root      1062780 Jun 29 16:20 
/opt/smalltalk/share/smalltalk/gst.im
bash-2.05$ ls -l /opt/smalltalk-test/share/smalltalk/gst.im 
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root      2234132 Jul  2 21:03
