Item13457: Foswiki 1.2 Extension Installer doesn't use local files. It always downloads new copies.
Priority: Urgent
Current State: Closed
Released In: 1.2.0
Target Release: n/a
Applies To: Engine
Component: configure
Branches: master
Set up a test PREINSTALL exit, simply prints and issues die.
On Foswiki 1.1.9, the exit runs, and the installation is blocked. On Foswiki 1.2.0, the exit doesn't run and the installation proceeds.

Actually the bug is that the CLI installer doesn't use the _installer file in the current directory. It always downloads a new file. So it isn't finding my locally built extension. This is even more urgent as it means the extension installer won't work without an internet connection.
