As probably I'm the last person that has touched dltk, I have to share that the chances for a rebuild are zero as it looks like even the ci is gone https://ci.eclipse.org/dltk .  Even if it was there I wouldn't have time for it so if someone is interested to keep it in please state so so I can nominate you to restart the project or it should be removed from simrel.

I assume that this means the PHP package will be a problem, as IIRC that is the package that contains DLTK components?

The CI instance was removed > 1 year ago due to no builds running and no response from the project in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=575527 -- followed up in https://gitlab.eclipse.org/eclipsefdn/helpdesk/-/issues/1093

The last time simrel needed a change done on PDT it was done, but the project was slow to respond. Unfortunately the PDT project hasn't had a successful build since Dec 2021. 

If I am reading simrel.aggran properly, DLTK has only PDT as dependent and PDT isn't dependent on anything. 

Is it time to remove DLTK and PDT from SimRel? That means the Eclipse IDE for PHP Developers package needs to be removed too.
