Hi David,
Thanks for taking the time to reply,
> I assume you really do have your toolchains file at ~/.
Well, sort of, the file comes from inside a repository which contains things required for our release process so it will be somewhere that is always available
but not in the default location. That was what I was trying to get across with my sample build command, sorry for muddying the waters.
I tried specifying -Pbree-libs on the mvn command line and initially the build failed because I wasn’t specifying an OSGi/Minimum-1.2 in the toolchain.xml.
I’ve downloaded the ee.zip from the build instructions and updated my toolchain.xml so it has all the sections of the sample one from that page and the build still fails with this message:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-packaging-plugin:0.19.0:package-feature (default-package-feature) on project org.eclipse.e4.rcp: Execution
default-package-feature of goal org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-packaging-plugin:0.19.0:package-feature failed: Could not determine installation size: zip file is empty -> [Help 1]
Whilst trying to build org.eclipse.e4.rcp. Why is it trying to determine the installation size when the build is only half completed?
For avoidance of doubt I am now running
mvn -e --toolchains ~/.toolchain.xml -Pbree-libs clean verify
Would it be helpful to attach some more of the error log (I’ve tried to cherry pick the relevant section but I might be wrong)? Is there anything else I can
supply to help to get to the bottom of this?
All the best
Phil

I could reproduce the problem you are seeing, following your steps, ....
side issue: 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.

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 default-package-feature
of goal org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-packaging-plugin:0.19.0:package-feature failed: Could not determine installation size: zip file is empty -> [Help 1]
org.apache.maven.lifecycle.LifecycleExecutionException: 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:

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
