Public bug reported:

While installing a plugin, the plugin appears to install correctly, but
when install_plugin() checks if a restart is necessary, the function
fails on

response = response_str.split(':')[1].strip().lower() == 'true'

with an IndexError. It appears that the response coming back from both
the install call and the is_restart_required query is ')]}.' for some
reason, hence splitting on the colon doesn't do anything and there is no
second element to grab.

This issue persists whether executing against a local server or a server
running elsewhere. I can ignore the is_restart_required query for now,
but the nonsense brackets are still puzzling and perhaps a sign of an
issue elsewhere if I can't actually get the expected 'Result:
true/false' string.
