Quicksilver b53 for Leopard

Many folks have noticed over the last few days that TUAW favorite Quicksilver had disappeared from the net. Fortunately, Blacktree's servers are now back up and beta 53 (build 3814) of Quicksilver is available for download (download link). The new version is primarily a bugfix release, but is recommended for everyone running Leopard. Alcor, the developer, says that there was a nasty bug in the plugin downloading code of b51 which brought the server down. So anybody who had been freaking out over Quicksilver's mysterious disappearance should set their minds at ease.

Same happened to me. There is a refresh button on the bottom of the window. Try hitting that. It worked for me.

Harald, I have the same problem. My entire plugin list seems to have disappeared, and the plugin screen is just blank.

Hey Klaus,
glad you made it, I was already scratching my head ;)

Completely reinstalled QS and pimping it to my needs took by far less time than when I first installed it.
However my plugin list has disappeared once again and I cannot install any new plugins, its just empty. Anyone out there with a similar problem?
I seem to be the only one in the blacktree forum with this bug :(

Oh damnit.. there's a setting inside quicksilver, something like "show icon in dock" - just had to disable it :)

Sorry.......

#13,
I can't drag it out of the dock.
When I drag the icon out of the dock, this "trash cloud" appears, but when I release my mouse, the icon just jumps back into its place in the dock :(

Any ideas?

14. #9 there is a setting in quicksilver for that... I have it disabled alltogether, i.e. same as spotlight.

I confirm. It's in the preferences, -> command -> Reset search after... and you can change de time of check that option off.

Thanks serenity. :)

I guess you just have to drag it simply out of the dock, like any other application symbol or am I getting something horribly wrong? :)

Anyway, my extremely customized websearch did not work either and no plugins were shown in the preference pane and since Quicksilver leaves its traces on various places, I'm going to trash everything and customize QS from scratch.
That goes better with the "clean install" mood I am currently in.

Anyone else having the quicksilver icon in the dock now also? With Tiger, it was only in the menubar. How do I get it away from the dock?

@Gary G:
Since I upgraded to Leopard, my web searches don't work either... I'll install the updgrade to QS now and see if it works again..
