Description Misha Koshelev

Build Identifier: 20100617-1415

My apologies, I am willing to provide more information about this if necessary, but to my best understanding the following command:

eclipse/eclipse -nosplash -application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.director -repository http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.6.x,http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.6 -installIU org.tigris.subversion.subclipse.feature.group -profile epp.package.jee -profileProperties org.eclipse.update.install.features=true

Is equivalent to a GUI install of the feature 

"Subclipse (Required)"

under the "Subclipse" category from

http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.6.x

The command line command succeeds, as does the GUI command.

However, an analysis of IUs present in the GUI system shows that certain IUs are not installed in the command line version, such as:
ch.qos.logback.classic
for example.

It seems to me, from a naive end-user perspective, that either an error should be output or the install should match a GUI install.

Perhaps I am missing something :(

Thank you
Misha

Reproducible: Always

Neither of the two repositories that you mention provides a ch.qos.logback.classic IU so I'm curious where that IU came from. Did you install into a profile that had other repositories configured?

p.s. I checked:

(sorry I cannot access help.eclipse.org atm it is running _slow_ on my end)

but did not see a way to quickly list repos.

Thank you

Seems your IDE has several more repositories then you used for the director. In the IDE you also have the 'Contact all update sites during install to find required software' checked. This means that you feed a lot more meta-data into the p2 resolver which in turn causes the install to be slightly different.

This is a known issue that results from a bug in the resolver that got fixed in 3.6.1.

log of install with _all_ repositories included

Fyi, when installing using _all_ repositories:

eclipse/eclipse -nosplash -application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.director -repository http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.6.x,http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.6,http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios,http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/repository/helios/,http://download.eclipse.org/tools/mylyn/update/helios -installIU org.tigris.subversion.subclipse.feature.group -profile epp.package.jee -profileProperties org.eclipse.update.install.features=true

I do get the desired (well not quite - see below) error:
Installation failed.
An error occurred while collecting items to be installed
 session context was:(profile=epp.package.jee, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Collect, operand=, action=).

However, surprisingly, those IUs seem to be present on the exact same repos:
misha@misha-d630:/tmp/eclipse$ ./eclipse -nosplash -application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.director -repository http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.6.x,http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.6,http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios,http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/repository/helios/,http://download.eclipse.org/tools/mylyn/update/helios -list 2>&1 | grep qos

ch.qos.logback.core=0.9.19.v20100419-1216

ch.qos.logback.slf4j.source=0.9.19.v20100519-1910

so I am still stumped.

I am trying to download a nightly build to make sure it is indeed fixed per duplicate bug entry but the site is timing out for me :(

Thank you
Misha

GUI install on nightly build - pre-install repositories and package selected

Documenting. On nightly build mysteriously enough I get _more_ IUs with command line vs GUI install

p.s. The ch.qos.* packages have gone away so I hope indeed the problem is fixed. Thank you
