Description Eike Stepper CLA 2011-09-25 09:19:30 EDT 
I sometimes have patched plugins in my IDE that lead to errors when Buckminster tries to install from there. I would like to switch it off because the resulting error messages are confusing ("Artifact X is a folder but the repository is an archive or remote location").

See newsgroup thread "ERROR   [0002] : Artifact is a folder but the repository is an archive or remote location." for more details.

Don't know what you mean with "tries to install from there".

Did you try setting buckminster.download.source=false ?
