I cannot guarantee it, but this may be related to a fix I just committed that populates the <repository> tag in the dependency definitions with a toolshed attribute if it is missing (it looks like it is in your case). I used to not populate the tag, but simply stored the tool shed in the repository metadata. Bjorn discovered, however, that certain repository installations would not succeed if the toolshed attribute was missing. WHen I investigated this, I discovered that some downstream stuff could not locate the appropriate tool shed if the attribute was missing from the tag.
I fixed this in 9836:252027d00b44 by populating this tag attribute if it was missing. Unfortunately, a new dependency definition has to be uploaded to those repositories that have definitions where it is not set in order to get this fix.
I don't know if updating your dependency file in this repository will fix this issue, but just wanted to alert you to this.
Very sorry for any inconvenience!

Finger's crossed - I've changed repository_dependencies.xml by updating the comment in it, http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/ncbi_blast_plus/bb81d3afa28d http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/blast2go/f3a61c2cf309 http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/blastxml_to_top_descr/482b7f4... As an aside, the XML comment line seems not to show up properly in the HTML diff view on the toolshed for this change.
