The underlying problems here appear to be.... * The repository list in the /usr/bin/eclipse startup script is still that for Helios, but the release for Oneiric has been updated to Indigo * The repo injection functions in the script are broken
If there's no .eclipse folder the startup script executes this command which creates it and pre-fills it /usr/lib/eclipse/eclipse -clean -initialize It then hunts for the settings files governing p2 repositories so it can inject some extra entries. The find commands in the script now locate 2 paths rather than one, then tests the string of two paths to see if it's a file ; it isn't, it's a list of two paths. Thus it fails to inject entries into the config. e.g. for metadata, one set of settings in ~/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_3.7.0_155965261/p2/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.engine/.settings/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.metadata.repository.prefs And one here ~/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_3.7.0_155965261/p2/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.engine/profileRegistry/PlatformProfile.profile/.data/.settings/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.metadata.repository.prefs The latter file appears to be the correct one for the metadata ; this is where eclipse stores any update sites you add for yourself. The default files in the PlatformProfile.profile folder as created by this command appear to contain the Helios update sites as well ; and also references to the Galileo repositories (3.5). I'd be surprised if that were correct - these files look like they could do with a good cleanout. Since the way they are generated is hidden in the eclipse implementation, I'm not sure what contributes to their content. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/873187 Title: Eclipse does not include the relevant software plugin repository To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eclipse/+bug/873187/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
