I'm also getting this error. I had this package installed already and it was working. I got the notification that some of the packages needed to update, and this one failed to update. I restarted atom to find that the package was removed from my package list and can no longer install it.

I'm getting the same error as the OP.

Hoping for a fix soon.

YES - i had to search again for package, 'Remote-FTP' - eventually it popped up and the re-install attempt of course still failed.

maybe caused by the big jump from previous version to 2.0 i guess, AND that I am using a beta version.

I would happily downgrade to earlier Remote-FTP if I knew how.

CAN ANYONE- tell us how to find the last version, then downgrade to the previous version before 2.0?

Really missing it as it's SO wonderful.

whatever happens - great thanks!

I had the same issue where I was unable to reinstall through the settings. What worked for me was to reinstall through the command line: apm install remote-ftp . This installs version 1.3.4

[brockdunda]

Thanks cmalkus, that worked for me too.

I think this is an APM (Atom package manager) bug.
@cmalkus solution works.

apm uninstall remote-ftp
apm install remote-ftp

[tweed]

GEEZ - that DOES work on windows command line as well
just bring up powershell and paste in --> apm install remote-ftp

as there no longer was anything to uninstall for me
I just installed
WOW THANK YOU SOoooooooo MUCH

The new atom supports only the lowercase package name.This has been fixed in the new remote-ftp version. The package's previous settings will be lost.
