Funnelweb error installing transmogrify.webcrawler

I am trying to install the funnelweb add-on for the latest version of plone (4.2.x). I have tried this on 3 different computers, and get this same mistake on all of them. The error is pasted below:

The author made a packaging mistake and didn't include the README.rst file in the distribution.

Update: Version 1.2.1 was released fixing this issue. Try installing again.

For future reference, when you run into such a problem, you can pin transmogrify.webcrawler to a specific version (such as 1.1) in your [versions] section:

[versions]
transmogrify.webcrawler = 1.1

or use mr.developer to get the development version:

[buildout]
# assumption: you already have mr.developer in your buildout
auto-checkout += transmogrify.webcrawler

[sources]
transmogrify.webcrawler = git git://github.com/collective/transmogrify.webcrawler.git

I filed a bug report to let the author know; hopefully there will be a fixed version available soon.
