[equinox-dev] [prov] handing of patches

[Scott Lewis <slewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

With the recent changes/additions for patch handling, will p2 now allow 
the update/patch of platform plugins (including, for example, ECF6)?

Reason I ask...ECF currently has to create separate builds (and ask 
people to use different update sites) for ECF-on-eclipse 3.3-3.4M5, and 
ECF-on-eclipse 3.4M6+ because of the p2 'patch problem'.  Just want to 
know if this is still an issue (my expectation is yes this is still an 
issue, but would like to be sure).

Thanks,

Scott
