[TxMt] Problem with tm_dialog

[Jonathan Ragan-Kelley]

I see this has come up several times, with the common (and rather
obvious, seeing as it's stated fairly explicitly in the error message)
answer being to update the entire Support directory from SVN and
restart TextMate.

I bring this back up, however, because I thought the GetBundle
bundle's autoupdater was generally supposed to keep everything
up-to-date with the repository.  I've been using this in place of a
personal (manual) SVN checkout since my last OS reinstall a month or
two ago, but I've just found that *it* seems to have updated the
bundles independently of the plugins, if it updated plugins at all.
Forcing a manual update-all through the bundle's commands and
restarting TextMate multiple times has yielded no change.

I thought the bundle updater was the preferred way of staying
up-to-date these days.  Is that no longer the case?  How are we
supposed to keep the plugins and bundles in sync using the
auto-updater?  I'm more than capable of checking out the bundles by
hand (indeed, it was the SVN bundle where I first ran into this), I'd
just like to stay on the smoothest/most-approved path where possible.

Thanks.
