generate the update site?)
No, I didn't know I could. How would I do this with Athena?
Add a category.xml [0] into your .releng project.

Or, if you prefer to generate everything, then slice n' dice it, there's
the p2.mirror [1] application to partially mirror a repo into another
place. But even better, there's the Buckminster Aggregator, which allows
you to rewrite/reorg categories and merge update sites too. I have a
sample script [2], [3] that does this for merging 3 update sites into
the larger JBoss Tools repo, including moving runtime and sdk features
into their correct categories.

You mean the *tests* fail with that error? That's because that
feature is installed into the test runtime in order to be able to
run the tests.
To support what you want to do, we'd have to add another property
into build.properties or testing.properties to allow a list of IUs
to be installed for the test runtime.
Or maybe setting "mainFeatureToBuildID" to something else in
testing.properties will override the value used to build with some
other feature for running the tests? Try it and let me know if that
works.
Why exactly do you not want this all-in-one feature on your update site?

Thanks for your help. I have removed the "bin.includes" from the
feature, and added a "p2.inf" file with the 2 lines you gave,
but the build now fails with this error:
The installable unit org.eclipse.gmt.modisco.all.feature.group
has not been found.

This will depend on how Athena does its integration with p2.
Nick
should be able to clarify.
- if using "generate.p2.metadata=true", this is generating p2
metadata based on the binary results of the build. In this case,
simply not having a binary jar for this top level feature will do
what you want. This is done by making sure that the
build.properties for the feature does not have a "bin.includes"
property
- if using "p2.gathering=true", this is generating p2 metadata
directly from the source, in this case you will end up with a
metadata group (but no artifact if you don't define
bin.includes).
In this case you will want to turn off the "group" property, do
this by providing a p2.inf beside the feature.xml and adding the
following:
properties.1.name <http://properties.1.name>
<http://properties.1.name>=org.eclipse.equinox.p2.type.group
properties.1.value=false

Hi,
Athena takes a single feature to build (unless I am mistaken).
So, I have created an "all" feature that references the other
features, and that I choose as "mainFeatureToBuildID" in my
build.properties.
This works fine, but I would like this feature NOT to appear
on the
list of features available on the update site built by
Athena. How
would you do this?
