3°/ We still have issues with the replacement and repackaging of 3
Eclipse plugins (see our last mails about the Maven build).
I think that we do have a problem here:
The SHA1-Digests are the result of jar signing. This is new since eclipse 3.3 (see also
http://wiki.eclipse.org/JAR_Signing).
I don't think it's good practice trying to patch the signature of the jar file.
Sorry about the bad news. From my POV it's really worth to ask on an Eclipse list how to customize the plugin.xml for
i.e. org.eclipse.search.*.jar
