I tried a 'scribe update' today and am getting the message:
"No meta data found for grimoire grimoire. Not Updating.

The file /var/lib/sorcery/grimoire/GRIMOIRE does contain:
FROM_URL=http://codex.sourcemage.org/devel.tar.bz2

I'm using the devel grimoire (obviously) and stable sorcery (0.8.0.1).

Anyone have any ideas? If not I'll investigate further tomorrow.
