drracket: disabling tools in edit -> preferences -> tools

[wharris1]

I opened DrRacket (on a Windows system) and disabled some tools in preference -> tools. On restart, I got a dialog with title DrRacket Internal Error saying

preferences:get: tired to get a preference but not default set for 'test-engine:enable?'.

Pressing okay on the dialog window, just closed it. A black-console window stayed open, but DrRacket wouldn't start. I opened racket-prefs.rktd and removed the line

 (((lib "test-engine") ("test-tool.scm")) skip)

and restarted it. It came back alive. I then disabled all tools and restarted. That worked. So maybe I disabled a tool that another one needed.

I think this is a dependency between the htdp deinorogramm and test engine tools (as also reported in the mailing list) Robby

That's correct. I started the Racket User's thread. Someone asked me to open the issue here, so I did.

Thank you.
