Re: [p2-dev] Roaming not really movable

Roaming refers to the ability of moving the installation and still be able to run it. It does not have the characteristic of adjusting every possible path in the universe including the repos listed in the repo managers :)
Did you try setting a relative path as a repo?

I have a Buckminster user who installs a buckminster runtime using the 
p2 director with -roaming. He then copies the installation onto a memory 
stick and makes an attempt to run from there. That doesn't work because 
the installation has an absolute path (with drive letter) in the 
<installDir>\p2\org.eclipse.equinox.p2.engine\.settings\org.eclipse.equinox.p2.artifact.repository.prefs.

This is using 3.5 on a windows box. Is this a known problem? Has it been 
fixed since?
