Dev-c++ devpack updater/installer problem

Ok, whenever I try to use the dev-c++ updater, it won't let me use the devpacks.org server, only the dev-c++ primary devpack server.  If I switch to the second one, it simply loads the primary devpack server again, but keeps the menu item at the devpacks.org community server.  Is there anything I can do to make it work, or is it something serverside? I have installed 2 codeblocks installations one on top of the other(the one with mingw first then the one I believe it said to be the updated version on top of it), and have two installations of mingw in two different locations(for reasons of comparison between IDEs).  I don't think that these events should have affected it, but there they are anyways.  Any help is appreciated, thanks.

It was a bug which has been fixed in CVS. Please wait for RC2. It's coming...
Be patient!
This bug will be fixed soon...

Hi Everyone:

The Dev-C++ updater is working for me, both the devpaks.org Community Devpaks and the Dev-C++ primary devpack server. 

What version of Dev-C++ are you using?  The most recent version of Dev-C++ is 4.9.9.2, some of the older version of Dev-C++ had problems with the updater, so if you are using a version other then 4.9.9.2 then you should download the newer version.  Be sure to follow the uninstall instuctions completely. 

Why are you posting a question about Dev-C++ on the C::B forum?  If you have problems go to the Dev-C++ forum where I or someone else will be glad to help you out.

See Ya

Sorry for the confusion, the plug-in that works towards use of devpacks from the servers, quoted from the menu of the most recent version of codeblocks, is called "Dev-c++ devpack updater/installer". 


Unrelated note:  I do note however, that 4.9.9.2 works fine for downloading devpacks from both sources, but that, of course, is unrelated.Argh! Redundancy!
Oh yes, thank you very much for the answer, Mandrav.

I'm using latest version from CVS and the plugin works fine in both servers .
