Cyriaque Dupoirieux commented on FOR-742:
-----------------------------------------

Can I close this, because I don't know what I can do more than the fallback 
mecanism which is now in place :
Forrest uses a fall back mecanism to find the plugins to install for a project.

For an unversionned plugin, Forrest tries to get it from :

   1. different local sources directories (project.required.plugins.src 
property)
   2. if not found : the remote site in the forrest version directory
   3. if not found : the remote site (with no forrest version directory)

For a versionned plugin, Forrest tries to get :

   1. the versionned plugin from different local sources directories 
(project.required.plugins.src property)
   2. if not found : the versionned plugin from the remote site in the forrest 
version directory
   3. if not found : the unversionned plugin in different local sources 
directory (project.required.plugins.src property again)
   4. if not found : the unversionned plugin from the remote site in the 
forrest version directory
   5. if not found : the remote site (with no forrest version directory)

>             Project: Forrest
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Plugins (general issues)
>    Affects Versions: 0.8-dev, 0.7
>            Reporter: David Crossley
>         Assigned To: Cyriaque Dupoirieux
>            Priority: Critical
>             Fix For: 0.8-dev
>
>
> The plugin retrieval and deployment process are not quite correct. Recently 
> the projectInfo plugin had its version number incremented and the 
> "unversioned" plugin now relates specifically to 0.8-dev version. That 
> prevents 0.7 from accessing the relevant plugin.
> The solution is discussed here:
