Description Fernando Ribeiro

2011-05-07 17:07:33 EDT

Build Identifier: M20090211-1700


The upgrade fails with the "Cannot find a solution satisfying the following requirements org.eclipse.jdt.ui [3.4.0.v20080603-2000]" message.

When trying to install that version of JDT, I get the "there is a newer version
already installed" message, as I expected.

Please evaluate changing the dependency to the last version of the JDT, if at
all possible.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Eclipse 3.4 (build above)
2. Try to upgrade from 0.10 to 0.12
3. Verify error message

We only support up N-2 releases, therefore, 3.5.2+

Is there a reason you can't upgrade to at least Galileo or Helios?

For the work for one specific important customer, there is, unfortunately. What is the last version that I can use w/ Ganymede?

I believe 0.10 or 0.9.

You're welcome to try to build it yourself on older releases and try to patch what you need to. In theory, it shouldn't be that much work but I'm not sure.

I'm still under the impression that I had 0.10 working before uninstalling it by accident, probably upgraded from 0.7.1 after #307522 was fixed.

I didn't find the update sites for 0.6 or 0.7.1, are those versions available elsewhere?
