Description Andrew Overholt CLA 2008-03-04 10:31:40 EST 
This is a tracker bug that we can use to capture all tasks related to improving the consumability of builds from eclipse.org.  Things that will fall under this bug:

- SDK build issues
-- bootstrapping (including bootstrapping PDE Build)
-- reproducibility
-- any JRE issues
-- ensuring the builds are the same as eclipse.org's
- ease of generating buildable source drops of non-SDK plugins/features
- ease of building non-SDK plugins/features

It would also be nice if os-arch-ws triplets weren't hard-coded everywhere.
Comment 2 Andrew Overholt CLA 2008-09-30 14:12:12 EDT 
Tentatively setting 1.0 target.
Comment 3 Nick Boldt CLA 2008-11-06 21:14:17 EST 
Looking for a "do linux tools build with CBI" bug. This seems close enough.

I think I've figured out why the linuxtools build is failing to find org.eclipse.test_3.2.0. Or, more to the point, why it's looking for it.

In o.e.linuxtools.tests/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF, you specify a requirement on that plugin and version. Is that really required? Comparing to o.e.gef.test, I don't see this as a stated Require-Bundle.
Comment 4 Andrew Overholt CLA 2008-11-12 10:16:00 EST 
This isn't the correct bug.  I've opened bug 255056 to build linuxtools with CBI.
Comment 5 Andrew Overholt CLA 2009-04-27 11:58:25 EDT 
Alex is working hard on eclipse-build and hopes to have something that can be used to build a working Eclipse SDK in the 0.3 timeframe.
Comment 6 Alexander Kurtakov CLA 2009-10-20 08:00:34 EDT 
I'm considering eclipse-build generally usable. 
Please open specific bug reports if problems appear.
