(re)start your engines! 

The repository has been re-created with new Platform (re)build 

http://download.eclipse.org/releases/maintenance/

For the record, the process was documented in bug 428822 for anyone who 
wants to know the nitty gritty of how I spent my Saturday morning. :)

bug
Sent by:        [email protected]



Based on feedback from the Planning Council, I will do a "rebuild" of the 
aggregation repository, once the fixed version of p2 is available and 
verified. 

I thought I'd be explicit that my plan is to do the sort of rebuild where 
the input from all other projects is simply taken to be what already 
exists in 'maintenance' repo, ... 

So, if anyone was thinking of "sneaking in" some other change, that won't 
really work, and you'll have to explicitly state you want to be included 
to get a fix for a bad bug  (and get Planning Council approval, etc.). 

I would expect the new maintenance repo to be available some time over the 
weekend, but so far don't have an detailed plan. 

Thanks,

Hi,

This is a heads up that a pretty bad bug has been discovered in p2 which 
can leave an installation in a non startable state 
(https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=428575).

This does not happen on every install. It only occurs when the import 
wizard triggers the remediation, but it is bad enough that I have been 
discussing with the RT PMC the possibility of spinning a new build.

We will keep you posted ASAP, on what we decide to do.

Regards,

Pascal
