I should add that I didn't change the install.xml script at all that had worked with 4.3.2. I just re-ran the compilation to see if my 'unix shortcut' problem had been fixed, but now it doesn't even generate anything. Can post my install files if necessary, but should be possible to compare the code with the previous version, see what changed, and what could be null...

Julien resolved this issue (a missing xsl file) and updated the online jar. I've just added a meaningful message just in case (the "null" message from the NPE is quite useless...).

I can confirm this problem no longer exists. Do I close the issue or do you guys control that? I'm happy IZPACK-392 also seems closed. I can now create shortcuts on Linux even if other users exist on the system, which previously (4.3.2) wasn't possible as the system would hang. Great job! We'll forget about uploading over a released version! I also have a day job and a night job and gave up waiting for the fixed version well after midnight as I had to get some sleep before my day job!
