Using version ^2.1 for drupal/ckwordcount
Using version ^1.17 for w8tcha/ckeditor-wordcount-pluginBut lib file is not moved to libraries folder. As a result:
$ drush en ckwordcount
[error] Unable to install module 'ckwordcount' due to unmet requirement(s):
- You will need the CKEditor plugin for counting words and characters before enabling this module. <a href="http://ckeditor.com/addon/wordcount">Get the plugin here</a>. (Currently using CKEditor Wordcount version Plugin not detected)
The module install requirements failed. Do you wish to continue? (yes/no) [yes]:
>On 1 project where i use this i have a composer script to move the lib to the libraries folder after composer completes. Thought this might have been fixed by now but will go back to that script for now.
Needs review
