I ran a test build with the I20110126-1800 bundles this morning and saw the following error.  The build is failing when trying to fetch the ecf bundles from the repository

BUILD FAILED...
/master-ecf/customTargets.xml:10: The following error occurred while executing this line:

Here is line 34 in /builds/N201101270937/src/fetch_master-ecf.xml

There is NPE here in the .log

The build runs fine with 3.7M4 bundles against the same ECF repo.

According to the code, this means that the Transport service is not available. I believe this is registered by DS in the new org.eclipse.equinox.p2.transport.ecf bundle that Pascal added a few weeks ago. Does the configuration that you are running include this bundle?

ah...no, just added it and will try another build :-)

Okay, that was me. I should have started the osgi console and verified that bundle resolved before opening a bug.  p2 is awesome, how could I doubt it?
