I checked my ./eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_3.6.1*/configuration/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator/bundles.info, and it already contains the lines as indicated by the patch submitted by Hannes von Haugwitz (message from July 1st, 2011, for bug 587657). Also, my locally-installed plugins were indeed active (so I didn't have the symptom described by the initial reporter).

So, as far as I can tell, I don't have bug 587657. (In fact, I had already installed and configured this version of Eclipse, from experimental, several weeks ago, installed the stuff I needed, and worked with it fine for a while. I only had a problem when, a couple days ago, I tried to update existing plugins before adding some new ones.)

Before sending in my report yesterday, I had noticed that a few of my plugins were complaining about not finding a sat4j dependency; that error went away when I reverted to an older sat4j package.

After clearing out my .eclipse directory and reinstalling Eclipse packages from experimental, the problem seems to have gone away. I suppose this means the problem could have come from some of my locally installed plugins. Also, for some reason my Install Software menus had changed a bit--I'm not quite sure when--and now that I cleared out all my local stuff in .eclipse, they're back to they way they've always been.

I did save my old configs and downloaded plugins from my .eclipse directory; please let me know if there's something you'd like me to look at from there. Hope this has been helpful, thanks, greetings.

Hi,

I have a different, but also possibly related, problem with Eclipse
packages from experimental. Though the package worked for a while, it is
now unable to access the new p2 update sites (update sites that no
longer support the old site.xml format, such as the Helios Discovery
Site). Here is the error:

Hi,

Could you double check you are not affected by #587657 ?  That bug is
the root of many weird and silent failures.
