Yes, I believe it is a problem because the repo zip doesn't contain the
right IUs.
Try using the repo website at [1]. (it worked for me)
The full list of repos is at [2].

      That's because p2 looked for a version that would satisfy all the
      other IUs currently installed ? including org.eclipse.platform.ide

      re-install 3.6.0.

      You should get more mileage by using "-uninstallIU
      org.eclipse.platform.ide -installIU org.eclipse.platform.ide".  You
      can also force a particular version with
      
'org.eclipse.platform.ide/3.6.1.r361_v20100909-9gF78GrkFqw7GrsZnvz0JWNTeb6fue6896L',
 though I think you need to specify the full version

I tried "-uninstallIU org.eclipse.platform.ide -installIU
org.eclipse.platform.ide" and got
      Installing org.eclipse.platform.ide 3.6.0.I20100608-0911.
      Uninstalling org.eclipse.platform.ide 3.6.0.I20100608-0911.
...so no improvement there.

I tried executing the uninstall and install independenetly.The uninstall
works fine. The install says:
      Installation failed.
      The installable unit org.eclipse.platform.ide has not been found.
Let me repeat that the p2 repo I'm trying to install from has no IU called
org.eclipse.platform.ide, so I'm not surprised by this result. Am I using
the wrong p2 repo? I'm using org.eclipse.platform-3.6.zip.
