Re: [buckminster-dev] replace a plugin in buckminster

[Achim Demelt <a.demelt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Andreas,

If you create a p2 site that contains your patched bundle, you can simply 
use the director to install that single bundle into Buckminster. No feature 
required. Just make sure your version number is higher than the one that is 
already installed.

Cheers,
 Achim
