I believe the problem is that the editor plugin depends on block_eexcess being installed as well. I installed the block after, and the error went away.
I believe you need to put a "$plugin->dependencies" declaration in your "version.php" file to help prevent this problem.
See the section on this in the Moodledocs on "version.php".

Mike is right. We should prevent admins into running issues like this.
