Description Pascal Rapicault CLA 2007-11-02 14:00:39 EDT 
Because of a problem in the metadata, I20071101-2000 can not be installed in a new profile. However there is this weird situation where if you first install  I20071101-0010 and then update to I20071101-2000, the installation will appear to have worked.
This is pretty disturbing.
The test data for this problem will be mirrored on a local machine for reproducibility at a later time.

One thing to notice is that after the update, the profile of this install does *not* contains the top level IU representing the SDK.
Comment 2 Pascal Rapicault CLA 2008-03-10 21:10:37 EDT 
This has been fixed in HEAD by using SAT4J.
