Repo2Runnable should only consult the input repositories. If the repo manager knows about other artifact repositories, then we could end up collecting and transforming artifacts that come from other repositories than the one we were asked to process. This can have side effects if the other known repositories are things like extension locations which may cause a lot of work to be done if they are consulted.
Created attachment 168241 [details] patch
One of the side effects mentioned in comment #0, is bug 312447, treating an entire eclipse install as dropped in and regenerating metadata for the whole thing. That bug doesnt currently have a good fix, so we would like to avoid the problem with the change here.
I've release the patch. Thanks andrew
