Description Stephan Herrmann

Start with the indigo package for testers,

Add http://download.eclipse.org/releases/maintenance to test
the current aggregation (as promoted from Hudson Job #669).

Next invoke "Reload" and you'll see this error:

3004: Unexpected error occurred.
  java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Location must be absolute: %25update.label

The same error occurs if you invoke "Check for Updates".


After the error the site seems usable, though.


I could not reproduce using the Indigo SDK.

I can't reproduce this (but, admit, I have a vague memory of seeing it before). 

I started with the testers RC3 package, added
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/maintenance
and 
http://build.eclipse.org/technology/epp/epp_build/indigo/download/20110916-0152/repository/

and could update the testing package, without seeing the error. 

Let me know if there is some other procedure that will show it, but otherwise, I'll assume its been fixed by someone somewhere? (And, I do recall, it is hard to track down these "label problems" since is essentially an error in someone's feature.xml file, not necessarily any of the "main" ones we know about in the common repository).
