I could reproduce the problem you are seeing,
following your steps, .... 
side issue: I assume you really do have
your toolchains file at ~/. 
typically its under ~/.m2/
but no reason it has to be, if you specify
on command line ... just thought i'd mention it.

But, if I specify -Pbree-libs on mvn
command line, then it builds to completion. In fact, I think you only need
a 'toolchains' file (for our build) if you use the bree-libs profile. 

I always run with -Pbree-libs so not
sure if something changed, or if you just forgot that part. I know at times
it has worked without users having to specify -Pbree-libs but at other
times we could not avoid it. 

[If you find that fixes your issue,
you might add a note in the wiki its now required.]

Thanks, good luck.

Problems building the Eclipse platform from the R4_3_maintainence branch

Hi All,
 
I'm struggling to build the Kepler Eclipse
platform from the R4_3_maintainence branch. I used to be able to do so
using the instructions from http://wiki.eclipse.org/Platform-releng/Platform_Build
 but about 1 week ago the build started to fail. My build process
is this
 
    git clone -b master --recursive
git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/platform/eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator.git
    cd eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator
    git checkout -b R4_3_maintenance
origin/R4_3_maintenance
    git submodule update
    export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx2048m
-XX:MaxPermSize=512m"
    export JAVAVER=jdk1.7.0_13
    mvn --toolchains ~/.toolchains.xml
clean verify 2>&1 | tee build-output.log
 
which I think reproduce the instructions
from the above page and this method was working for more than a month.
 
I've checked the following
 
+ I don't have a settings.xml file in my
~/.m2 directory
+ I have checked for pom.xml updates and
I can't find any
+ My JVM is running in server mode
+ My version of maven is later than the
requirement
 
The only change I can find in the instructions
relates to building from the R4_3_1 tag but says that it shouldn't apply
to the maintenance branch.
 
The error I get when building is:
 
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-packaging-plugin:0.19.0:package-feature
(default-package-feature) on project org.eclipse.equinox.core.sdk: Execution

    at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.MojoExecutor.execute(MojoExecutor.java:224)
 
Can anybody offer suggestions for what
I need to do to get the build working again?
 
Any help that anyone can offer would be
much appreciated
 
Thanks in advance
 
Phil
