Great contribution to Drupal, site development workflow much faster now, thanks.
while testing one of the problem encountered is that when a module added to the Installation Queue an somehow md5_file hash does not work, than that module remains on the queue with no a -cancel/unselect/remove from the queue option.

And when one tries to install another module, on Step 3 you get "The md5sum is incorrect for" message for that module but also It does not install the one which md5_file hash is correct.
result is the installation all further functions staggered

unless there is a remove from the queue or/and the only the ones with correct md5sum successfully installed skipping the ones the md5sum is incorrect'

Does anyone else encounter this problem? Would you considering to look into the problem?
thank you

Title: "The md5sum is incorrect for" - cancel, unselect or remove from the installation queue option » Cancel, unselect or remove from the installation queue option when "The md5sum is incorrect for x.module"

I correct the my original issue above, the modules which md5_file hash is correct installs sucessfully, but because there is an module which md5_file hash is NOT correct the one installed and gives error still all modules -including installed ones shows on the queue and you need to copy/paste all md5_file hash es for all modules allover again

I presume that might be easier at least if there is an 'ignore' option on version selection options on the -Step 2 of installation.

what exactly is it that you want? a queue management page is currently in the works. would that fulfill you need?

Okay, i guess the paragraph is confusing, simplified with one line

- ability to cancel and delete an install an module -or language from the queue

because if some reason the install fails, the module or language on the queue still -stalls/remains there asking its MD5 number eachtime

(i my case installing Spanish Language fails each time but i ave to put MD5 as the module asks when i try to install other modules which also fails to install)

hope its more clearer now -

-try to insert a wrong MD5 to fake a failure and you will see what i mean

thanks

I'm having this problem too, and I think this would fix it.

There should be a way to manage the Install queue beyond only being able to select the version to install, as it is now.

Great add-on!

I would suggest this tittle better.

okay shorter is better as long it makes the point

There is a (somewhat confusing) queue management page--its just tucked into the middle of the "find" page.
im working on making it more intuitive.

Great!

Meanwhile, perhaps people can try this little tricky trick to get them uncorked.

Go to the 'drupal_variable' table and edit the row where 'name' = 'plugin_manager_queue'.

Mine was before:
a:4:{s:8:"swftools";s:8:"swftools";s:13:"subscriptions";s:13:"subscriptions";s:9:"fckeditor";s:9:"fckeditor";s:7:"feedapi";s:7:"feedapi";}

And after:
a:1:{s:7:"feedapi";s:7:"feedapi";}

So now I can continue using Plugin Manager. Otherwise modules like fckeditor -which doesn't have md5 on the repository- would render the tool unusable (and this is a small bug too).

You don't actually have to go to that level of hackage to remove items from the queue....
Just go to the "Find" page, uncollapse the "Install Queue" dropidown, and uncheck stuff. Then click the "Queue for Installation" button (very unintuitive, i know. as i said, im working on it) ;)

And fckeditor does have an md5....? http://drupal.org/node/322504
