Missing local install plugin

[chris-steele]

What happened?

If the contentplugin collection (in the database) has plugins marked as locally installed but the plugin is missing in the file system (i.e. not present in APP_DATA/data/contentplugins) the tool will error silently and the installation of other plugins may fail. The tool runs but editing content typically produces errors (citing missing schemas).

The error is thrown when attempting to read the plugin info here.

How should we deal with this scenario?

I'm not able to replicate this one with the latest deps, possibly resolved?

[chris-steele]

Unfortunately I can't recall the steps that led to this scenario, but it may have arisen with imports. I don't believe it is related to the paths issue solved here, however.

Will keep a watch for this issue.
