Can you try a tarball from here: http://git.eclipse.org/c/linuxtools/org.eclipse.linuxtools.eclipse-build.git/commit/?id=b880d718e451d254f344d2290dcd58ff2b0f3f23 ? Please let me know if the label is now correct. > 2. The "provision.sdk" target needs to install the > org.eclipse.equinox.initializer plugin, or the "install" step will > fail. Chris Aniszczyk did this work because there were issues with the behaviour of stuff in dropins if this was installed. Have you looked at how it's done in Fedora to see how it works there? http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=eclipse.git > 3.

I suspect you're hitting these bugs: 345060: [eclipse-build] install target fails https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=345060 345053: eclipse-build failed to install with empty destDir https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=345053 > I have patches for these, prepared by hand, but I guess you'll want > them generated from git? Yes, that would be awesome! Please open a bug [1] and either attach patches or point to a SHA-1 in a public git repo somewhere that you want us to pull.

I suspect the install target behaves differently than the installSDKinDropins target which is used by Fedora where this scenario works. Can you try that target and see what happens?
