Social plugin gotcha on multi site

If the theme is cloned from github and one is installing the Social plugin via the WP admin on multisite, the theme will bomb out as it expects to find the plugin installed into the theme directory. To get around this, I symlinked from the plugin to the theme's plugin directory:

sudo ln -s [webserver site root]/wp-content/plugins/social [webserver site root]/wp-content/themes/wp-personal/plugins/social

I would have left a comment or a files a bug instead of a wikipage, but nonesuch seems available.
