Description Andreas Goetz CLA 2008-05-29 04:14:05 EDT 
Using p2 I've tried to install the mantis mylyn connector. I ended up with p2 showing me the attached picture with category shown but no features. Looking at the update sites xml response, there is a feature available which was also shown after restarting eclipse. WIthout restarting however, I couldn't find a way to have p2 show me the feature.

What build are you using?
Comment 3 Andreas Goetz CLA 2008-05-29 11:53:12 EDT 
Using RC2- have not been able to reproduce this. Potential workaround could be support of "Refresh" (F5) on the repositories?
Comment 4 John Arthorne CLA 2008-05-29 13:44:59 EDT 
There is a refresh button on the right hand side of the dialog, although it is not connected to F5.
Comment 5 Andreas Goetz CLA 2008-06-02 03:09:08 EDT 
I'm seing a similiar problem where p2 shows the available features twice (see screenshot). Closing and reopening the dialog in this case fixed the problem.

features shown twice
Comment 7 Andreas Goetz CLA 2008-06-02 03:19:17 EDT 
Furthermore, the installed software seems to omit certain features. In this case- see screenshot- the Mylyn bugzilla connector is installed, too and validated working- still not shown.

The double vision problem has been addressed in RC3.
As for the other problem, p2 only shows what the user explicitly installed.
