Spring Source Tools Suite and grails support

This plugin for eclipse is supposed to provide groovy and grails support.
It seems if I install the IDE Core first all by itself, it will install, but this seems painful and perilous.

eclipse update fails

When trying to use the release update site:
SpringSource STS - http://www.springsource.com/update/e3.5
fails with
