Using the "Add-on Products" option from Site Setup to install Products.Quills does not work for current svn trunk (rev. 82098). Products.Quills will show up as a installed product, but no Weblog object can be added to the portal (via Add new...).

In the log you can see that no GS step has been executed. Furthermore the dependencies "quills.app" and "Products.fatsyndication" are not pulled in. Installing as an extention profile via the ZMI works, though.

I observed this with Plone 3.2.1.
Steps to reproduce:
- Go to the "Add-on products" panel of "Site Setup",
- select "Products.Quills",
- click install.
- Now go to the portal root and try to add a Weblog object. You cannot because this menu item is missing.

Starting to work on a test for this in a branch (http://dev.plone.org/[…]/issue-174-install-ttw).

Fixed at rev. 84052 (http://dev.plone.org/collective/changeset/84052/).

The problem was introduced by the fix for issue #119
(http://dev.plone.org/collective/changeset/78685). The fix introduced a "Install" operation but did not pull in the GS profile there. QuickInstaller
will not do it by itself when a install operation is present.

No responses can be added.
