I filed a separate bug for the related idea of a versions & dependencies
check, because I still think that could be useful too:

Title:
  Sanity check for plugin installation

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I propose a sanity check for plugins before they are installed automatically with the system installation. Right now, when the installation of a single plugin fails, all plugins that would have been installed thereafter are skipped as well. 
  The problem occurred with a plugin that depends on a artefact type that comes with another plugins, so with the sanity check the dependent plugin can check, if the artefact type was already installed. 
  A sanity check could also be used to check the installation of PHP-extensions or external programs. 
  The sanity check should also be called before a plugin is offered for installation after the core installation.
