Some mods will not install with error message

[eddygray21]

I have installed cottages, gt111, maptools, moreblocks and snow without any problem. Home Decor and Mobframework won´t install with the following error message:-
Error: /usr/share/minetest/builtin/modstore.lua:320: attempt to index field ´moddetails´ (a nil value)
Looking in the file this appears to be the problem or is it just that you have to start a new game before installing mods?

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

for i=(list.page * modstore.modsperpage) +1, endmod, 1 do
        --getmoddetails
        local details = list.data[i].details

        if details == nil then
            details = {}
            details.title = list.data[i].title
            details.author = ""
            details.rating = -1
            details.description = ""
        end

What minetest version are you using? I believe moddetails stuff was added quite recently.

I´m using arch linux with a cinnamon desktop and the x86_64 version minetest 0.4.9-2 downloaded from arch packages a few days ago.
I meant install mods before starting a new game.

I have the same issue. Using Ubuntu 12.04 lts. non of the mods through the modstore want to work for me.

Same issue as above.

When minetest loads, I click on the Mod tab, and click on the "Online Mod Repository"
Program immediately crashes!
