tiring of manually googling for SVN urls then checking out modules into /usr/share/ruby and linking it into plugins/, ive tried script/plugin again. it predictable fails here: ./script/plugin install acts\_as\_ferret svn: URL ‘svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/laszlo-plugin/rails/plugins’ non-existent in that revision ./script/…/config/…/vendor/rails/railties/lib/commands/plugin.rb:758:in `parse!': undefined local variable or method`name’ for #Commands::Install:0x2af381b6fa90 (NameError) from ./script/…/config/…/vendor/rails/railties/lib/commands/plugin.rb:469:in `parse!' from ./script/../config/../vendor/rails/railties/lib/commands/plugin.rb:485:in`parse!’ from ./script/…/config/…/vendor/rails/railties/lib/commands/plugin.rb:907 from /usr/lib64/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom\_require.rb:21:in `require’ from ./script/plugin:3 im thinking maybe the laszlo thing is fouling it up, but maybe thats just a warning? in any case, grep -ir laszlo finds nothing of interest to prune … m cracklog # ./script/plugin unsource svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/laszlo-plugin/rails/plugins failed: svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/laszlo-plugin/rails/plugins Removed 0 repositories. m cracklog # ./script/plugin unsource svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/laszlo-plugin/rails/ failed: svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/laszlo-plugin/rails/ Removed 0 repositories. m cracklog # ./script/plugin unsource svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/laszlo-plugin/ failed: svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/laszlo-plugin/ Removed 0 repositories. so i guess its write my own plugin script…or figure this out. any ideas? ---

This doesn’t directly answer your question :), but it may be helpful just the same. Instead of ‘manually googling’ for plugin URLs, go to [http://www.agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/](http://www.agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/) to quickly find plugins. Once you found one, you can then run ‘script/ plugin install ’ to fetch and install the plugin. Maybe one day I’ll get around to writing a nice little UI for script/ plugin that can do the search and let you pick ones to install from the list. Until then, at least you can save yourself a little bit of time by using the rails plugin directory I created. – Benjamin C.
