As I wrote, the repository will be at:

   ~/chicken/lib/chicken/5

The first component points to a place below /usr/local. You might 
have to set it as I wrote, namely pointing to your private 
directory, which is ~/chicken/share/chicken (see above).

Also, the manual page says that a semicolon is to be used as 
delimiter, not a colon. Don't know if it matters.
