What

Installing a plugin that is not in the cached marketplace catalog no longer fails outright; the install re-checks the marketplace first.

Details
  • Applies to both the single-marketplace and all-marketplaces install paths.
  • Shows a status line assembled from the marketplace name and the fixed text "for new plugins", refreshes, reloads the catalog and looks for the requested plugin again.
  • Outcomes are recorded under "plugin_install_catalog_refresh" with reasons "not_found_after_refresh", "refresh_failed", "reload_failed" and "ineligible".
