What was the filename of the installer did you used?

This seems to be a problem between OPSI. I have seen no reports of
anybody having this issue.

I guess the problem is that OPSI tries to install before all
environment variables are set. I don't think creating dummy
directories will help. You can check what happens if you install PSPP
manually. If this works all needed directories are created and you can
try to reinstall with OPSI.
