Description Terry Parker

Build ID: 3.5 M5

Steps To Reproduce:
1) Create a new destination repo with the following commmand:

-application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.artifact.repository.mirrorApplication
-source file:/tmp/src1 -destination file:/tmp/dest

2) Try to merge in a second local repository:

-application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.artifact.repository.mirrorApplication
-source file:/tmp/src2 -destination file:/tmp/dest

More information:
The second call results in the "Transport initialization error".  Debugging the code, the ecf.provider.filetransfer bundle is activated on the first mirroring operation but not on the second, so the ECFTransport.performDownload() call fails to retrieve the IRetrieveFileTransferFactory because the org.eclipse.ecf.filetransfer.service.IRetrieveFileTransferFactory service is not yet registered.

Interestingly, if I add a "-configuration /tmp/cnfg" parameter to the second invocation (where /tmp/cnfg is an empty folder), the second invocation succeeds.

These same commands do not fail using 3.5 M4.
