Summary: Missing NavigationLib/FetchFon on OS 8.1

Initial Comment:
MacPerl version: 5.6.1b3
OS Version: 8.1 (Swedish)

After installation, the MacPerl app complains about 
a missing NavigationLib on launch, and then exits.

After some digging I found that this lib apparently is 
part of Carbon; it is available in CarbonLib 1.0.4, 
which I downloaded and installed; this fixed the 
problem. 

Still,  since this version is supposedly supported 
on MacOS 7.5 and forward, it would be good if 
either

1. The installer installed the Navigation lib if 
missing

2. OS 8.1 (and possibly other OS versions) was 
removed from the list of supported libs

3. there were clear instructions on where to get the 
missing parts included in the readme or the 
installation process.

Furthermore, Shuck complains about a missing 
"InterfaceLib--FetchFontInfo". I have not been able 
to find out the cause of this problem.
