I confirm the problem, plasmapkg fails to intall zipped plasmoids:
~/Downloads/KDE/plasmoids> kde4 plasmapkg -i 100348-plasma-applet-magic-folder_1.2.3.plasmoid 
"KConfigIni: In file /tmp/kde-makc/plasmapkgMGtSMI/metadata.desktop, line 1: " Invalid entry (missing ']') 
"KConfigIni: In file /tmp/kde-makc/plasmapkgMGtSMI/metadata.desktop, line 2: " Invalid entry (missing '=')

plasmapkg(9252)/libplasma Plasma::Package::installPackage: Package plugin name not specified 
Ошибка установки пакета /home/makc/Downloads/KDE/plasmoids/100348-plasma-applet-magic-folder_1.2.3.plasmoid

(Last line says that plasmoid fails to install.)

however it works fine with unpacked plasmoid:
~/Downloads/KDE/plasmoids> kde4 plasmapkg -i plasma-applet-magic-folder
Пакет /home/makc/Downloads/KDE/plasmoids/plasma-applet-magic-folder установлен

(plasmoid is installed)

and the plasmoid appears in the add widgets box.

I remember that everything was ok when I tested new plasma-scriptengine-ruby
port with KDE 4.4, so it is definitely regression in 4.5.
