yes, mangling with UC temporarily was our idea as well. We even talked with Jirka Kovalský (neither me or Martin has access to the VM), but we haven't found the right update center - I guess we haven't realized that 12.2.1 is using dev UC and not the same UC as NetBeans 12.2.0. Temporarily reverting the dev revisions back to pre-12.3 ones would be a solution! po 15. 2. 2021 v 11:31 odesílatel Neil C Smith <[email protected]> napsal: > On Mon, 15 Feb 2021 at 05:11, Jaroslav Tulach <[email protected]> > wrote: > > On the other hand, the hotfix still works. 12.2.2 as well as delivery > branch > > are removing the update centers: > https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/2757 > > - e.g. the hotfix really works. > > > > There are two alternative directions ahead: > > Thanks, Jaroslav.

Shall we finish the vote and release only sources, but not the binary? If that's a way out of our current situation, I have nothing against that. -jt
