when using orbit-S20100423142122.zip.

Using orbit-S20100308015149.zip does not exhibit the problem.

Which dependencies do you have in your bundles (required bundles as well as imported packages)? I'm not sure but I think you have to set a property in order to support binary cycles in PDE Build.

FWIW, the Logback bundles in S20100308015149 were broken and could never work at runtime.

Hi Gunnar,

Thanks for the advice, I will try allowBinaryCycles option.

Thanks,
allowBinaryCycles = true fixed the problem.

So, is this a permanent limitation of these bundles? Not possible to fix in Orbit? If so, perhaps a "note" should be added to the log.xml file, so it shows up table on download page. I know that not everyone would read or see it in that table, but seems like we could better document "how to use" these combinations of bundles?
