When it rains, it pours. 

The .../releases/maintenance repo is currently "out
of sync" with the SR1.257 repo. As of about 5 PM Monday (Eastern).


In fact, at the moment, there is no "epp repo"
that is in sync with /maintenance. I hope to get it worked out later today.


Full story: 

I promoted a new maintenance staging repo last night
(partially in an effort to get an "early build" this week, as
requested by Beth Tibbitts in message subject "Pre-RC4 build possible?").
[Yes, Beth, we are not ignoring you :) ] 

But, then the automatic EPP script failed (e.g. build
#264) due to signing issues. 

My guess this has to do with the "lock out"
of shell accounts yesterday. I've sent to note to webmasters and Markus
about the issue and hopefully can be resolved today (Tuesday). 

Will announce when there is a new repo to try, but
in general, will update frequently this week to make sure the latest is
available for last minute testing. 

The reason your package depends on a specific version
of the platform is due to this element your package's feature.xml: 

   <includes
         id="org.eclipse.platform"
         version="0.0.0"
         search-location="both"/>

That "0.0.0" gets filled in with an exact
version when its built. The merits and issues about doing this are documented
and discussed, somewhat, in bug 345503. 
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=345503

I'll bet that's more than you wanted to know? :) 

Stay tuned,

   [epp-dev] Eclipse
for Testers Indigo SR1 upgrade - Cannot satisfy        dependency

Hello people,

I'm testing the upgrade process for Eclipse for Testers (from Indigo to
staged Indigo SR1) and have run into a problem.

I downloaded Eclipse for Testers Indigo from eclipse.org and added the
update sites that Markus mentioned in his previous e-mail:
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/maintenance
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/epp/packages/indigo/SR1.257

and then I selected Help -> Check for Updates. However, the operation
could not be completed, with the following details:

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not
be found.
   Software being installed: Eclipse for Testers 1.4.1.20110909-0613
(epp.package.testing 1.4.1.20110909-0613)
   Missing requirement: EPP Testing Feature 1.4.1.20110909-0613 
(org.eclipse.epp.package.testing.feature.feature.group 
1.4.1.20110909-0613) requires 'org.eclipse.platform.feature.group 
[3.7.1.r37x_v20110729-9gF7UHOxFtniV4mI2Vz-42iUN98YFpyoUe7IYaE]' but it
could not be found
   Cannot satisfy dependency:
     From: Eclipse for Testers 1.4.1.20110909-0613 (epp.package.testing
1.4.1.20110909-0613)
     To: org.eclipse.epp.package.testing.feature.feature.group
[1.4.1.20110909-0613]

I don't think we have any explicit dependency on org.eclipse.platform,
but perhaps we have some kind of implicit dependency. If I look in the
"Install" dialog, I can even see an "Eclipse Platform"
feature, but on 
closer inspection, this feature seems to have the id 
"org.eclipse.platform.ide" rather than just "org.eclipse.platform".
Can 
anyone help get me started on solving the problem?

Thanks!

  - Zeb
