Description err 2008-09-02 21:09:24 UTC
jVi is a module suite with two modules, jViKeyBindings and jViCore. jViCore is a library com.raelity.jvi required by
jviKeyBindings. In nb65beta and before since nb55 they are installed by jar -xv to extract the two NBMs, then selecting
the two with the plugin manager, then do install. Now this procedure gets the following error

    Some plugins require plugin com.raelity.jvi to be installed.
    The plugin com.raelity.jvi was requested in implementation version 10.
    The following plugin is affected:
        jVi KeyBindings 

Workaround: only checkbox jViCore, click install, go through steps. This works. Then check jviKeyBindings do
install (plugin manager is still up) go through steps. And its installed.

I've called this a P2 since the problem is reported by a jVi user who didn't manage to find the workwaround.

For testing the jVi plugin is available at 
https://sourceforge.net/project/platformdownload.php?group_id=3653&sel_platform=9516

Will be fixed in NB6.5 ASAP.
