Description Paul Verest

2013-06-03 23:24:14 EDT

Installation Remediation DOES NOT respect selected items in File-> Import .. -> Install Software Items from File "Import Software Configuration" Dialog.

For example, If selecting only 1 plugin (for example StartExplorer in ENodeIDE.p2f https://raw.github.com/Nodeclipse/eclipse-node-ide/master/ENodeIDE.p2f ), installation will contact ALL update site. So installation takes 1-2 minutes instead of 5-10 seconds before (in 4.2).

This may be related to #387115 [import/export] Enable "Import->Install->Install Software Items from File" without explicit locations
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=387115

Implemented logic is 
"
- On import when the p2f is loaded, the "contact all update site" option will be automatically enabled if the p2f has an entry without a repo.
"
should be
- On import when the p2f is loaded, the "contact all update site" option will be automatically enabled if there is selected p2f entry without a repo (repository tag). 
If selected p2f entry has repo, only it should be used.
If p2f entry is not selected, plugin/feature and repo both should be excluded from next processing.

I suggest to make "contact all update site" option as checkbox "Enable contact all update site" (default is ON) on "Import Software Configuration" Dialog

Thanks for reporting. This is indeed a regression.

Will not be addressed in Luna.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
