Hi,
Sorry if this question was asked (and answered ) before, but I juste
can't come up with a reasonable search query. I've even had a hard time
looking for a title :)
I'm managing an eclipse RCP application (based on ganymede) and an
update site using the old (non p2) site.xml format.
Everything is working nicely, except for one minor problem : the update
dialog doesn't show features where the minor version number changes.
For example, if the version 1.0.0 of feature A is installed, a newer
version 1.0.x shows up in the update dialog, whereas 1.x.y doesn't. The
latter only shows up when you select the "install new features" option.
Is there any way to tune this behavior ?
Here is my plugin_customization.ini :
org.eclipse.update.ui/discoverySitesEnabled=true
org.eclipse.update.scheduler/enabled = true
org.eclipse.update.scheduler/schedule = on-startup
org.eclipse.update.scheduler/download = false
org.eclipse.update.core/org.eclipse.update.core.checkSignatu re = false
I guess there must be a property to configure.
Cheers,
Jawher

There was a Preferences setting to control what kinds of updates were
permitted: Preferences > Install/Update > Valid Updates. It allows the
user to choose between service-level increments only or service and
minor increments. The default, IIRC, was service-level only ("equivalent").
Hope this helps,
