Thanks, the problem was resolved.
The "Plugins" directory was named by me as lowercase "plugins" so that the installer cannot recognize it in the case-sensitive UFS filesystem. After capitalizing it, the plugins work fine.

They should work. You probably have some code that accesses a
filename with slightly incorrect case (Upper Case vs lower case).

Check your Info.plist files to see that they reference your plugin
name exactly.
