Since there was no satisfying solution, I've just released code to the
mirroring app that will perform the same resolution than the one performed at
install time. This will be available in the next I build (Tuesday morning)
This can be enabled by setting resolve="true" (see example below).
Only one platform filter can be supported at a time (or none).
<project name="Helios Mirror" default="mirror" basedir=".">
<target name="mirror">
<p2.mirror
source="http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios/"; destination="${basedir}"
verbose="true">
<iu id="org.eclipse.equinox.sdk.feature.group"
version="3.6.0.v20100601-7H7R-7v8rtGVR34XkO3kfH3DUO07" />
<slicingOptions resolve="true"
platformFilter="win32,win32,x86"/>
</p2.mirror>
</target>
</project>
