>Description:
The shlib module of swi-prolog-lite is missing predicates that are used by 
swi-prolog-package modules.
>How-To-Repeat:
For example run swi-prolog -s test.pl on the following file (you require the 
swi-prolog-packages package for the time module).

*** BEGIN test.pl ***
:- use_module(library(time)).
*** END test.pl ***


You should get something like:

$ swi-prolog -s test.pl

%    library(error) compiled into error 0.00 sec, 10,236 bytes
%   library(lists) compiled into lists 0.00 sec, 25,908 bytes

>Fix:
Just remove the post-install rule from Makefile which overwrites the shlib.pl 
module from files/shlib.pl (which seems to be a left-over from an old package 
version).
