The problem that I just realized is that I accidentally typed xindy in the
keywords field and not the name field of the package manager.  It was
coming up with a handful of packages which seemed to get xindy.exe
installed in the miktex installation.  Yet, I wasn't seeing the proper
xindy packages appearing in the package manager.  I think this is where my
confusion was coming from.

Anyway, I got it sorted and everything seems to be working as expected.
Thanks, Ulrike!

Best,
Chris
