Initial installation steps following
https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/System/Installation/J903 went smoothly, but
trouble appears when installing jqt.
$ cat /etc/issue
Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS \n \l
$ uname -srvmpio
Linux 5.4.0-96-generic #109-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jan 12 16:49:16 UTC 2022 x86_64

$ # temporarily change Desktop permissions else pacman fails
$ sudo chmod go+x /root/Desktop
$ sudo /usr/bin/ijconsole-9.03
load 'pacman'
'install' jpkg '*'
these steps can take several minutes

Since /usr/share/j/9.03/system/util/pacman.ijs gets downloaded afresh on every
run, I cannot work around this by hard coding vsuffix just before the failing
command.
