Question

I am trying to install TwistyPlugin and TwistyContrib into my TWiki (4.0.5) installation. As per documentation, I have first installed BehaviourContrib. But it seems that there is no BehaviourContrib.pm file in either the BehaviourContrib.zip or the BehaviourContrib.tgz file.

Is it safe to install Twisty even when there is no BehaviourContrib.pm file?

--------- Log ------------
bash> ~/twiki_stuff/TwistyContrib_installer -n install
Could not write "- TWiki::Plugins::FileListPlugin::initPlugin( Main.WebHome ) is OK" to /nfs/site/proj/www/sites/cfntest/twiki/data/debug.txt: Permission denied

### TwistyContrib Installer ###

This installer must be run from the root directory of your TWiki
installation.     
    * The script will not do anything without asking you for confirmation first (unless you used -a).
    * You can abort the script at any point and re-run it later
    * If you answer 'no' to any questions you can always re-run       the script again later

Checking dependency on TWiki::Plugins::BehaviourContrib....
*** TwistyContrib depends on perl package TWiki::Plugins::BehaviourContrib >=1.000
which is described as "Required"
But when I tried to find it I got this error:
                                                                                
Can't locate TWiki/Plugins/BehaviourContrib.pm

Would you like me to try to download and install the latest version of BehaviourContrib from twiki.org? [y/n] n
TwistyContrib version $Rev: 9598$ is already installed. Are you sure you want to re-install this module? [y/n] n

Answer

To be short: yes, you may install without the .pm file.

We have had some problems with the installer creation package. I have made a new zip+installer for BehaviourContrib, so you may download the new version first.

If you want to upgrade TwistyPlugin - or have upgraded already - please see UpgradingTwisty for an easy bundle upgrade package.
