I've loaded Exupery into that image without problems previously. Did
you load anything else first? Monticello 1.5 used to cause problems
loading FFI, I don't know if it still does.

I fixed the link from the Installing Exupery Swiki page to it. There
should always be a prebuilt image for each release built as part of
