[tex-live] installation of beamer package

[J M Smith]

Dear Tug:
    I wanted to install a package called beamer into my tex-live program.
I downloaded it and installed the package in my directory on C:\Program
Files\TeXLive\texmf-local\
but am not able to link it in to the configuration. I clicked on the
maintenance button and tried to
get TexLive to configure the package, but I get the error message:

    can't find the C:\Program Files\TeXLive\texmf-local\binary TPM
directory.

    Can anyone help?

Jim
