Hi David
I'm confused. Why is "not
be allowed to update" expected and what is the "previous EPP"?
I thought that we were trying to
ensure that update works.
I can understand that a Neon RC4
to RC4a update might be undersirable due to evictions and UUID
policies, but surely everything else should work? Chuck out all
old plugins incompatible with the new, or in features replaced
by the new, then go. I have observed that this often fails when
e.g upgrading Xtext without uninstalling all downstream
dependencies first, P2 does not allow the required multiple
update from ZIP needed to resolve this preferring to report a
plethora of ambiguities from stale update sites contributed by
projects. But for a SimRel upgrade, all the replacements should
be there, so surely replace and evict should just work?
Regards
Ed Willink

My apologies for not

quickly the information back to this list. Entirely my
oversight.
The final EPP packages themselves
are
available from:
https://hudson.eclipse.org/packaging/job/neon.epp-tycho-build/388/artifact/org.eclipse.epp.packages/archive/
If anyone wants to try an "update scenario you
should
use the following two repositories. (And have only them
enabled.)
But, remember, the main "test
result"
... at least from previous EPP installations ... is that you
should "not
be allowed to update". If you were, the new installation would
be
broken since there was such a large change in structure from
previous (Mars)
version of EPP packages.
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/epp/packages/neon/RC4/and
http://download.eclipse.org/staging/neon/
Assuming no "catches the machine
on fire" type bugs these will become our Neon release on 6/22.

Extended team,
I am beginning a re-spin of the Sim. Release repository.
Two major changes: SOA-BPN2 modeler removed and Window Builder
removed.
The former removed because they didn't finish the normal release
requirements.
The later was removed because it has not been tested with the
Neon candidate
release. (It did recently, after RC4, get a build which "removed
one
line of code" which prevented it from running on Neon ... but,
our
goal is not for projects to "join at the last minute" but to
be part of the train for many milestones so it can be adequately
tested).
It is my understanding both projects plan to "rejoin the train"
in the September release.
A minor change: Linux Tools found a major memory leak which
would normally
not be "respin worthy", but I told them if we had to respin for
other reasons they could include a fix for that.
The EPP packages will need to be rebuilt of course -- first
because they
always are if the repository changes, but more so this time
because Window
Builder was included in two EPP packages and of course will have
to be
removed from those packages.
I will update this list once both steps are complete.
Thanks,
