There is a pretty hideous catch-22 going on in here and I am not sure how to square it.

The install program now only exists (and only has any meaning) within the auspices of the distribution tree. This means that such as it is, idp.home is the DISTRIBUTION. OF course there is not idp.properties and so we find nothing and so all the magical wiring inside the command line stuff won’t work.

Of course I am borrowing - home as an easy way find the distribution. But I don’t see that telling people to specify -home to point to the “to be upgraded” directory is a good idea. I’ll poke at the classes, I am wondering whether it’s possible to force the internals to think that the idphome is the target (specified with -'t).
