Subject: Re: [p2-dev] Fw: P2 updates and uninstall failled for bundles

I think it is something simple on your end but to be able to help any further I would need additional data. So please open a bug against p2 (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Equinox) and provide:
- the profile file representing the state from which you can't update. It is the most recent file contained in p2/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.engine/profileRegistry/<someId>/ 
- the metadata repository containing the updates

thx

Sure, let me describe a bit more. We have a full osgi app running on equinox. Our build generates what I though was a p2 enabled driver. Driver includes launcher and all application bundles under plugins directory. The build also generates a p2 repository that we export to our test site. This drivers will get layout not using the p2installing but Install Anywhere installer instead. Once the driver gets install people can start running our app, no problems. If they want an update they can point to a p2 repository we give them and then run some simple commands we created around your p2 InstallOperation and UpdateOperations services. My logic is this. I first find the IUs that are completely new bundles not found in DefaultProfile, then I use InstallOperations to install that list. Then I figure out IUs that are new versions of existing IUs and I update those using the UpdateOperations service. Here is what works: I can install new bundles via p2 and I'm able to update those. Here is what I can't get to work: I can't update those bundles that came with the installer, the UpdateOperations claims there is not updates available. I query the DefaultProfile and I see the old version, I query the repo with new metadata and artifacts and I see the new version. No quite sure why update installer is not finding the new updates in the new repo. Another thing I tried was to use your provremove and provinstall commands. That half worked, I'm not able to really uninstall the old version, the two versions run side by side, not what I want.

I'm thinking I may need to do something else to make the bundles lay down by installer p2 enabled. What is your take on this issue.
