If you download the M6 modeling package, then install Datatools from the Ganeymede update site, p2 will no longer function.  The problem appears to be that Datatools installs a version of ECF that doesn't work with p2.  I've filed a corresponding bug with Datatools.

Does anyone have a theory as to how to fix this manually?
