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


Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
  Software being installed: SpringSource Tool Suite (required) 2.3.0.200912171331-RELEASE (com.springsource.sts.feature.group 2.3.0.200912171331-RELEASE)

Try disabling "Contact all update sites" from the update manager and do this again. If this does not help, there are other possibilities, but let's try this first.

I unchecked "Contact all update sites..."

And checked all the items. Failed with the dependencies.

The checked only the first three core dependencies. Failed again.

Your original request has been modified.
"Spring IDE Core (required)" will be ignored because it is already installed.

Same issue here.

Another possibility is to try again, but make sure that the update site: download.eclipse.org/tools/mylyn/update/extras is enabled and that "Contact all update sites..." is *checked*.

It may be that you need to install a fresh version of STS.

I am having the same issue. Did you find a resolution for this?
