 * Hi,
 * when I try to activate the just downloaded 0.8 version of the plugin, I get the
   following error message:
 * ‘The plugin does not have a valid header.’
 * Any ideas what the problem might be?
 * By the way, it’s also a bit confusing that there are two entries for the same
   plugin in the wordpress directory.
 * Thanks a lot!
 * Fabian

 * Not sure what’s happening with the versions, but you can get the files from [http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/multiple-post-thumbnails/trunk/](http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/multiple-post-thumbnails/trunk/)

 * I bumped the version to 0.9 and now the download is correct and the auto-update
   works as well.
