Item2015: Plugin upgrade does not change plugin module in configure

If I upgrade an old TWiki plugin to a newer version that is now a Foswiki plugin, {Plugins}{MyPlugin}{Module} still refers to TWiki::Plugins::MyPlugin. It should be Foswiki::Plugins::MyPlugin.

I can fix this via configure, but this problem trips up admins because:

1. it is an expert setting and
2. it should be changed automatically when I upgrade a plugin.

Michael,

I think that this can be closed. The config checker for PluginsOrder detects this condition and provides the admin with hopefully a meaningful warning.

The extension install process doesn't do any updates to the LocalSite.cfg. And I suspect that going there will be opening up a rather large effort. Confirmation of changes, CLI vs. Web updates, etc.

Is the checker sufficient?

Thanks, George. Yes! That warning will do fine. Changing state to "no action required".
