Description Robert Munteanu CLA 2012-01-23 04:16:52 EST
The plugin does not link in any way to the EGit update site, so the JGit dependency is expected to be found locally. However, that is not always the case.

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
  Software being installed: Eclipse EGit Mylyn GitHub Feature 1.2.0.201112221803-r (org.eclipse.mylyn.github.feature.feature.group 1.2.0.201112221803-r)
  Missing requirement: Mylyn GitHub Connector Core 1.2.0.201112221803-r (org.eclipse.mylyn.github.core 1.2.0.201112221803-r) requires 'package org.eclipse.jgit.lib [1.2.0,1.3.0)' but it could not be found
  Cannot satisfy dependency:
    From: Eclipse EGit Mylyn GitHub Feature 1.2.0.201112221803-r (org.eclipse.mylyn.github.feature.feature.group 1.2.0.201112221803-r)
    To: org.eclipse.mylyn.github.core [1.2.0.201112221803-r]

Does the feature.xml just need to be updated for this?

I think you need to reference an associate update site which will be considered during the installation.

Matthias, do you know where this needs to be configured?
