Description Robert Jaemmrich CLA 2008-07-11 07:13:15 EDT 
Build ID: N20080710-2000

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Open a freshly installed p2 agent
2. Metadata Repositories -> Add Repository... -> "http://download.eclipse.org/releases/ganymede"
3. Click on the triangle next to the new repository entry (named "http://download.eclipse.org/...")
4. "Pending" is shown
5. Now there are 25 identical "Ganymede" repository entries :-)

This is a timing problem in the deferred fetch mechanism, see bug 235008 and related bugs.
