Description Greg Watson

Currently the org.eclipse.ptp.pldt.mpi.core and org.eclipse.ptp.pldt.openmp.core plugins have dependencies on org.eclipse.photran. Even though these dependencies are optional, P2 will install the plugins if it can find them. It is not possible to remove the plugins as the installation manager only allows whole features to be removed, and if photran was installed as a dependency, the features are not installed, only the plugins.

Instead, I suggest that the photran dependencies be moved to plugins that belong to a separate feature.

Where are the new projects checked in at?  I didn't find them in /org.eclipse.ptp/tools with the other PLDT projects...

Because I forgot to share the new projects. :)
Try now.

Didn't we revert this for the 5.0 branch because it would amount to API change?
