I just updated to last night nightly... I have 3 gallery's running off a main g2 base. For the last couple years i have maintained these gallery's and updated them as needed. Tonight the upgrade was a little rough, but I made it. After the first gallery was upgraded, i went to upgrade the second one and I got an error saying the config file was missing. I proceeded with an install over the top of the old one (only option). when it got to the database step it had the old db info, so i told it to use the existing tables. after the install got done, it errord saying the theme was missing (matrix), which took me back to the upgrader. this time the upgrade went through fine.

so first problem, when upgrading multisite with new svn there seems to be some issues

next problem i see
i downloaded some new plugins and deleted some old ones i dont use from gallery A, when I log into gallery B the plugins are there. Well... if the owner of gallery B deletes a plugin from his list, it removes it from the other gallerys too (obviously without clean up)... I dont think I have to go into details here, you can see the issue.

I'll update this thread if I run into any further issues. I just wanted to post that there is problems with a multisite install.

Thank you very much about the feedback.
I have just verified the multisite + DP (downloadable plugins) issue and it's real. We'll have to fix this before releasing Gallery 2.2.

Workaround:
Change the filesystem permissions such that noone can write to the modules/ and themes/ folder of the codebase. Then the codebase administrator is the only person controlling what is being added and removed.

I have created a RC-2 blocker bug. See:
