test grimoire is now as (almost) as uptodate as devel was without "most" of

GNU_URL's have changed their server layouts. they are being investigated and
changed in the sorcery files. any not using GNU_URL (and failing via
incorrect "hard" URL's) is a bug, and should be changed. if you have a list
forward it to bugzilla or myself.

I Am unaware of any problem with scripts in test or stable. I am sure there
are problems i just am not aware of them. Some more feedback is needed here.
failed install during cast ? failed running ?

This would be my fault entirely.
I have to apologise, i implemented these PAM triggers a fortnight ago.
Unfortunately it appears the the on_dispel trigger is NOT only run when a
spell is dispelled (good if you are removing PAM) but also during
prepare_install stage of BUILD(bad if you are just rebuilding). Sorry, more
extensive testing would have found this out. I am about to revert the
on_dispel trigger in all grimoires just scribe update tomorrow.

NO one else has made any comment, which means either of two things.
1) you and me are the only users of sourcemage. OR
2) you and me are the only users of sourcemage.
