Unable to install EasyBlog 3.9 on Joomla 1.5

My site is currently running on Joomla 1.5.25 (I know, I will get around to upgrading it soon!). I am using EasyBlog 3.8. I just tried to install EasyBlog 3.9 using Extension Manager. This failed with an error 500. Even worse, it left my entire website giving an error 500 whichever page I tried. The administrative backend was still working (apart from the Easyblog control panel) so I reinstalled EasyBlog 3.8. My website is now working again.

Looking in my error log it seems the problem is that media/foundry/3.1/joomla/framework.php does not exist. I can see it in the installation package but it does not appear to be being copied to the correct place. I note that there is no mention of the media folder in the package manifest but I don't know if this is the problem. I can also see that the package manifest in the 'files folder="site"' section has a line containing the text "pr" with no enclosing XML tags.

Since all I did was select the package and ask Joomla to install it, it seems unlikely that I have caused the problem so I am assuming the package is faulty in some way.
