1 **problem description:** when using an external plugin like rst, the cgi script (but not the build process) fails with the following words:
3 Unsuccessful stat on filename containing newline at /usr/share/perl5/IkiWiki.pm line 501.
4 Unsuccessful stat on filename containing newline at /usr/share/perl5/IkiWiki.pm line 501.
5 Failed to load plugin IkiWiki::Plugin::</methodResponse>
6 : Can't locate IkiWiki/Plugin/.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /home/ikiwiki/.ikiwiki /etc/perl \
7 /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 \
8 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at (eval 44) line 3.
9 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at (eval 44) line 3.
11 **setup used:** blank debian sid with ikiwiki 2.61 (but as the patch can be cleanly merged to git HEAD, i suppose this would happen on HEAD as well). perl version is 5.10.0-13.
13 **problem analysis:** `strings ikiwiki.cgi` tells that the stored WRAPPED\_OPTIONS contain the string "</methodResponse>\n" where i'd expect "rst" in `config{add_plugins}`. this seems to originate in the use of `$_` in the plugin loading function.
15 **patch comment:** solves the problem on 2.61. as these are the first lines of perl i've knowingly written, i can not explain what exactly was happening there.
