[news.eclipse.tools.buckminster] Re: Build fails after headless resolve

[shendric@xxxxxxx (Scott Hendrickson)]

Hi Thomas,

Unfortunately, I am wanting to create a legacy update site. The cspec is 
what results from directly following the instructions for the "Update 
sites using the 3.4.x and earlier releases" on the page that you mentioned 
(without any of the optional features like groups; but, the error occurs 
when groups are present as well).

If you follow the instructions on the page to create a legacy update site, 
you'll run in to the same error.
