Actually, I this appears to be a dependency conflict.

The version of the Groovy plugin that I'm trying to install is
*supposed* to be compatible with Eclipse 4.6.3, which is what RDi is
based on.

The plug-in won't install. The only solution that Eclipse offers that
will allow Groovy to install is to remove the base RDi features.

Won't run or won't install?

Can you give an example of a plug-in that works on Windows but not on Mac?

FWIW: I'm running RDi on Ubunutu 18.
