Hi

I suspect you had an accidentally working solution, that stopped
accidentally working.

My recollection is that the org.eclipse.license versioning has never
worked with Buckminster. Consequently OCL and QVTd builds at least get
org.eclipse.license from

<rm:locator pattern="^org\.eclipse\.license.*"
searchPathRef="license-source-code"/>

<rm:searchPath name="license-source-code">
<rm:provider componentTypes="eclipse.feature" readerType="git">
<rm:property key="git.remote.uri"
value="/gitroot/cbi/org.eclipse.license.git"/>
<rm:property key="git.auto.fetch" value="true"/>
<rm:uri format="{0},{1}">
<bc:propertyRef key="git.license.local.repository.location"/>
<bc:propertyRef key="buckminster.component"/>
</rm:uri>
</rm:provider>
</rm:searchPath>

See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=432841
and https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=431255

Hi Ed,
I have tried the buckminster instructions you have provided, but getting the following errors:

ERROR   [0002] : No suitable provider for component org.eclipse.license:eclipse.feature was found in searchPath license-source-code
    ERROR   [0002] : Rejecting provider git({0},{1}[null,org.eclipse.license]): No component match was found
      ERROR   Git repository path "null" is not absolute

The feature references the shared feature as follows:

      license-feature="org.eclipse.license"
      license-feature-version="0.0.0"

I am on build.eclipse.org.

Do you have any hints?

Thanks.
