Searching for the error message o nstackOverflow and elswhere proved not to be really helpful (as the ultimate advice to remove workspace solved nothing for me)

Hello Petr,
The issue seems to be that
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.9-I-builds no longer
exists, and likely hasn't for some time (given that 4.10-I-builds was
recently removed since the 2018-12 release) .
If you replaced '
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.9-I-builds' with '
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.9' , that should resolve
the issue. I could definitely fix this in the repo as ensuring others
are able to do some basic rebuilds even if no official ones are
expected is a reasonable expectation.
With that said, you'll still need to be on a branch that can build from
the 4.9 platform version. For master branch, you would want to be using
'linuxtools-e4.10' .
Hope this helps,
