Description Helmut J. Haigermoser CLA 2008-07-29 05:20:10 EDT
Build ID: 3.4 final

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Export a product
2. Check bundles.info entry for org.eclipse.core.runtime: 
org.eclipse.core.runtime,3.4.0.v20080512,file:plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime_3.4.0.v20080512.jar,4,true
3. Use director to install from a repo generated as a byproduct of #1
4. Re-check bundles.info entry for org.eclipse.core.runtime: 
org.eclipse.core.runtime,3.4.0.v20080512,file:plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime_3.4.0.v20080512.jar,4,false
5. Notice the important difference at the end of the config: "4,false" versus "4,true"

More information:
Normally I would not care about start levels and bundles.info at all but in this case my product would not start telling me it could not find core.runtime. Once I manually changed bundles.info to "4,true" things started working again.
