Ok, well I have done as you suggested and Gist seems to work now but I'm a little bit confused .... it hasn't recreated an Avian folder. Shouldn't it?
This folder is only for customized / custom bundles, or installed “manually”. The folder is not created before it is required.
In the past i had linked the Application Support/Avian/Bundles folder to dropbox so my desktop and laptop always were in sync for my own bundles. Should I be doing this a different way?
That is fine, well, except for the fact that DropBox seems to trigger a file system bug that cripple file system notifications, which is a problem for TextMate because it relies solely on these, to learn when bundles are updated.
I don’t know how widespread the problem is though, but now you’re warned.
Long-term we’ll have to create some fallback code that polls the file system.
