Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Luna RC1 staging repo is complete.
|
Hi Stephan,
For historical/releng reasons, part of ECF (core and filetransfer) could
not be directly updated in Eclipse. Prior to Luna, it was necessary to
patch Eclipse in order update these bundles.
Over the past year, this problem has been dealt with through changes to
the feature structure [1], and so this patch is not needed for Luna.
ECF would like to continue supporting Kepler, however, and so we need to
continue distributing the patch so that Kepler users can install ECF
from the Luna repo.
I agree the wording awkward. If people have suggestions for rewording
that would be clearer (i.e. use for Kepler, not for Luna), then
suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Scott

I just stumbled upon a feature that doesn't seem to belong here:
"ECF Patch for Eclipse Kepler (4.3). Not needed for Eclipse Luna
(4.4)."
Not sure if
(a) needed for some technical reasons and hence the nice explanation
in the feature name "please don't use me", or
(b) simply forgotten from former times?, or
(c) ... (your explanation here) ...
just looks funny ...
best,
Stephan
