Hi Michael,

Looks like the workaround for the installation issue is to run "M-x
tramp-recompile-elpa", but it complains there is no such command. So, I
just opened ~/.emacs.d/elpa/tramp-2.5.1.1/tramp.el in emacs and from the
menu selected Emacs-Lisp> Byte-Compile This File. I am not sure if it does
the same thing. After that I restarted emacs and M-x tramp-version shows
2.5.1.1. With this, I still see the problem (still hangs or crashes).

Thanks,
Mani
