[sword-devel] install manager seems badly braindamaged

[Karl Kleinpaste]

Terry just did some updates to bring back the module manager in GS,
which hadn't been functional in FCn for some time.  Trying it out, it
promptly toasted several modules that I decided to re-download
experimentally.  But it seems not to be GS' fault, because trying the
same thing from "installmgr" on the command line, I get the same
behavior.

Observe:

"installmgr -r crosswire" appears to work correctly, reporting on
stdout that it is cd'ing into Crosswire's pub/sword/raw, and then
retrieving mods.tar.gz.  Fine so far.

"installmgr -ri crosswire KJV" is insane:

Begins normally, then...
* Re-using existing connection! (#0) with host ftp.crosswire.org
* Connected to ftp.crosswire.org (64.140.154.250) port 21

[ kekchi.conf? ]

And so on, through almost 300 *.conf downloads.

And it doesn't get me a KJV module.

Help?
