Puppet users - Feb 2008 - CommonModules common: move "plugins" to "lib"

I''m installing puppet modules from scratch on a new machine, using the 
code at https://hg.koumbit.net/module-puppet/ btw.
The bootstrap script grabs a few base modules (to do dvcs checkouts) from 
http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/CommonModules , uses the new 
modules to get the rest.
However, the modules as checked out don''t bootstrap cleanly.
The fix is simple, just move module-common/plugins to module-common/lib.

Thanks!

I just recently discovered this discrepancy -- pluginsync looks for  
''plugins'', but autoloading looks for ''lib''.

We''ll be deprecating ''plugins'' in the near future to
fix this; I don''t
yet know if it will be in 0.24.2 or 0.25.0.

I conclude that there are two ways of constructing a software design:
One way is to make it so simple that there are ''obviously'' no
deficiencies and the other way is to make it so complicated that there
are no ''obvious'' deficiencies.
