Build Identifier: 20100917-0705 Target plaform, including the delta pack, is under source control in SVN. The "Cross-platform export" export page on the wizard shows many more entries than it should, presumably getting confused by the .svn folders. See attached image. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. prepare a target platform including the delta pack 2. check in target platform into SVN 3. setup target platform in Eclipse using directory locations 4. try to export a product and see large number of weird available platforms!

Moving to UI. Marking as help wanted. I can understand how the problem could happen, but I don't have time to work on a fix.
The list is built by scanning the org.eclipse.equinox.executable feature's bin folder. Simplest fix would be to ignore any folders starting with '.' we can say that the executable feature will never have platform folders like that. Code seems to be in org.eclipse.pde.ui org.eclipse.pde.internal.ui.wizards.exports.CrossPlatformExportPage#getListElements, perhaps also getOS, getWS. Looks like there is already some code there for CVS
This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
Please remove the stalebug flag, if this issue is still relevant and can be reproduced on the latest release.
