Note that it is highly recommended to use the API that Ned mentioned.
Trying to directly tap into the underlying preference store could lead
to troubles, especially when installations are more fancy (e.g shared
installs).

Blech! I only use P2 in the context of an RCP application with a
fully custom UI, I hope my application is not caching every URI it's
ever been passed...
Looking at the IRepositoryManager interface, looks like you could
`getKnownRepositories(REPOSITORIES_ALL)`, and then call
`removeRepository()` for each one.

Either there should be a way to tell p2 API not to cache these
URIs or those URIs have to be removed from "Available Software
Sites". We couldn't find a way to do the former and hence the main
focus of this email is the latter.

I don't know anything about changing prefs for "Available Software
Sites".
But, it is definitely possible to fetch remote repositories using
just the raw P2 API.
This blog post does a pretty good job describing how.

I can of course load up the p2 repository and look into the
code (as mentioned in [1] ). Thought I will check here first.
BTW, this is required because when WTP accesses adapters from
the internet, those sites get added to this list which
shouldn't be (see [2]). So, if there is a p2 API to fetch
remote repositories without adding the URI to the "Available
Software Sites" list, that should help too. In the absence of
that we will need to deal with the pref store directly (via
APIs). This query was posted on the forum [3] but no responses
so far.
