Re: eb-lite-alpha-9 fails to install

Oops. Someone's fallen victim to a hastily-hacked-together build script!

OK, I forgot to include install stuff in that alpha (hmm...somewhat 
surprised nobody else has stumbled on that yet - perhaps nobody's 
daring to use the ABS?). Since "make" succeeded, there's a working core 
binary called core/src/eb-lite. Just copy that somewhere, for example:

$ su
Password:
# cd eb-lite-alpha-9/core/src
# cp eb-lite /usr/local/bin/
# chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/eb-lite
