Yes. When the IDE makes an executable, it uses the last path memorized in 
the "make executable" dialog. So you should use "make an executable" and 
specify a directory that exists on the new machine.

I admit that the packager should be more clever, and uses a location that 
always exist, as it makes an executable only for making the package. But at 
the moment the IDE makes no distinction between an executable that must be 
put in a well-defined place, and an executable that is just temporary.
