np, it's kinda my job begin the author :)

Try to link the files from ftdetect/* also into ~/.vim/ftdetect (create
folder if non existing) and try again. I feel the autocomand FileType is
not installed.

If that works, let me know if you need both symlinks (after and
ftdetect) or if ftdetect is enough. I'll update the docs then.
