Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Update Manager "Select Required" Broken Again? [ was Re: Europa build Monday morning: all green except pack200 problem]

I was following the recommendation in the official Version Numbering Guidelines (http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Version_Numbering#Versioning_features ) with respect to the declaration of feature dependencies.
I thought the Update Manager had already fixed this problem, in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=138802 .
Is something broken again?  It certainly isn't working ...

Sounds like you'll need to reopen that bug or assign the one I opened to them for feedback. The behaviour I documented is not what I'd expect to see as a seasoned Eclipse user, much less a first-time Europa user. It's great that UM now understands that by selecting the OCL feature that the org.eclipse.emf.ocl plugin has been selected (and therefore the error message goes away). My issue is that 'select required' should just select them for me, without me having to pick them by hand. Isn't that what 'select required' means? ;-)

Anyway, this isn't an EMFT bug as such, but it's affecting your existing and future users, so I'll leave it to you to chase the Platform > Update folks with this issue.
