swinstall CLI works, swinstall interactive doesn't work

Hi.
I don't know how to fix the next problem:
When I type swinstall -s /tmp/PHSS_yyyy
all works perfectly. But when I try to do it by swinstall and the interactive menu, selecting
Actions -> Show software for selection,
Source Depot Type: Local Directory
Source Host Name: ushp0001
Source Depot Path: /tmp
I receive the message

There is currently no depot software on host "ushp0001" at location
"/tmp". Make sure that an absolute pathname is specified for location.

???

Thank you.

Interactively change the source depot path to;
/tmp/PHSS_yyyy

Hello.
Thank you both of you for your answers.
When I type swreg -l depot /tmp, I receive the same answer:

There is currently no depot software on host "ushp0001" at location "/tmp"

If I select swreg -l depot /tmp/PHSS_yyyy, it works. The other solution (selectiong /tmp/PHSS_yyyy) on source works too.
