Description Andrew Overholt

The page for the C/C++ Linux EPP package shows that it includes CDT 7 when it should say 8.

http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-cc-linux-developers-includes-incubating-components/indigor

I'll attach a patch that _may_ fix this but I'd really like Markus' input.

FWIW, I've verified that the CDT is actually version 8.0.0 so we're fine there, it's just the web page that shows it incorrectly.

potential patch

Can we just remove the specified CDT version and let it pick the one in the Indigo p2 repo?  Is this even what's driving the contents of the package page?

Nathan uses eclipse_linuxtools_indigo.xml for creating the web pages *plus* the feature.xml for the feature listing on the package page. From a features point of view we tell the build and p2 afterwards that we want CDT in a version greater or equal version 7, but on the web page this doesn't make sense any more since it doesn't really match with the version that ended in the package.

What will I do now? I've applied your patch to CVS HEAD and I am going to check all other feature.xml files. When I think they are ready, I will ask Nathan to generate the package pages again from the updated versions without feature versions.

There is a separate issue (see bug 345503): The way we defined the packages worked over the last two or three years, but we should discuss whether we want to change it with Juno next year.

Thanks, Markus.  I'll keep an eye on bug 345503.

This has been fixed a long time ago and now linux tools are part of the CPP package.
