Re: [tycho-user] How can I help to fix a bug?

Hi Matthias,

I didn't test your patch yet but had a look at the sources. It seems that your patch relies on at least one .product definition per "eclipse-repository" artifact. But AFAIK a product definition isn't mandatory for an artifact of packaging type "eclipse-repository".

Regards, Lars
