Thanks for the pointers! Having also struggled with private packages on 0.5 for
a while now, I tried below steps (a few times). No such luck.
Also, using https: for a private package on 0.5 on my system hangs
Pkg.update(). After ^C it states it’s updating TP but that is not the case.
Could that have to do with:

Pkg.clone() works.

Rob
