 * In testing the latest update I get this error:
 * The plugin flickrRSS/flickrrss.php has been deactivated due to an error: Plugin
   file does not exist.
 * It’s currently enabled on 36 sites on our Multi-Site instance.
 * What is the appropriate method to avoid a mass disable of this plugin upon update?

 * I would seem that auto-update only plays nice if the plugin’s folder name matches
   the repository url. I don’t think auto-update existed the last time I released
   a version of the plugin. My suggestion would be to rename the file to flickr-
   rss (you may be able to get away with symlinking flickrRSS to flickr-rss).

 * Hi Dave,
 * I went the symlink route and that seems to work fine. Thanks for the help!
 * NOTE: We’re updating via directly altering the files on the file system via version
   control for those who may see this in the future.

 * Going to mark this as resolved.
