Plugin Loader lists all plugins as missing when only one is missing
Reported by Oshoma | February 9th, 2009 @ 04:07 PM | in 2.x
The plugin loader raises a LoadError exception when a plugin requested in configuration.plugins cannot be loaded. This exception message currently lists all requested plugins, rather than just the subset of plugins which weren't loaded successfully.
Impact: the message is misleading. You know something didn't load, but you can't be sure what exactly went wrong.
Repro: delete a plugin directory from a Rails app that has several plugins. Then start the console or server and you'll get an error message like this: "Could not locate the following plugins: stubby, acts_as_chunky_bacon, non_existant_plugin1, and non_existant_plugin2". The message lists all plugins in the configuration.plugin statement, regardless of which ones were successfully loaded.
Versions: Rails 2.3.0 (same issue in 2.2.2) ruby 1.8.6 (2008-03-03 patchlevel 114) [universal-darwin9.0] psql (PostgreSQL) 8.3.5

(from [a6508527570cd3f7225a7030218447bcc5824224]) Fix loader's LoadError exception message to mention missing plugins and omit loaded plugins.
