[cross-project-issues-dev] Galileo / Eclipse Platform repository issues

[Markus Knauer <mknauer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi *,

I am trying to use the p2 repositories of the platform team and the generated Galileo repository, but since a few days I have severe failures/problems.

(1) The 3.5milestones/3.5-I-builds etc. repositories are using the new composite repository layout (http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox/p2/Composite_Repositories) but IMHO the repositories are inconsistent. E.g. eclipse/updates/3.5milestones lists the following children but none of them is there:

  <children size='3'>
    <child location='N20090303-1645'/>
    <child location='N20090305-1447'/>
    <child location='N20090306-1145'/>
  </children>

I tried to consume them with the latest I-build I20090310-0100, but wasn't successful.

(2) It is not clear to me why the Galileo build is not failing. Obviously it is not using none of the p2 repositories.
