Hi - I just installed Maven 2.0.8 as per instructions.

Running

   mvn --version

yields

   Maven version: 2.0.8
   Java version: 1.6.0_03
   OS name: "linux" version: "2.6.17.13" arch: "i386" Family: "unix"

The FAQ indicates that to check the installed plugins I need execute

   mvn -Dplugin=install help:describe

But when I run this command it fails with a build failure

    Plugin could not be found.

I also tried

   mvn -U -Dplugin=install help:describe

but the same result - can't find the plugin.
The output is enclosed.

There doesn't appear to be a FAQ entry indicating how to upgrade or install a plugin.

Any help would be appreciated.
