Re: [eclipse-dev] I build broken

If you do not use or update to Platform weekly integration builds then you can ignore this message.

There is a problem in last week's i-build which will prevent proper updating to this week's content. Please consider the following scenarios below and react accordingly:

If you have build i20090217-2200:
- wait to update to the rebuild
- if you already updated to today's i-build you are ok but you still need to grab the JAR from [1] and put it in your plug-ins directory, overwriting your existing org.eclipse.equinox.p2.garbagecollector JAR

If you have i20090224-0800:
- grab the JAR from [1] and put it in your plug-ins directory, overwriting your existing org.eclipse.equinox.p2.garbagecollector JAR
- then you can update to the rebuild
- you still should NOT update to i20090303-0800

If you have today's build from a zip (i20090303-0800):
- then grab the JAR from [1] and put it in your plug-ins directory, overwriting your existing org.eclipse.equinox.p2.garbagecollector JAR
- you can then update to the rebuild or another build at your convenience.

If you already updated to today's build and believe you are in the broken state (e.g. no p2 menu in Help):
- grab a zip from the rebuild
- if you have extra bundles you want to install, you can point p2 to your old profile and install them (add the profile directory <install>\p2\org.eclipse.equinox.p2.engine\profileRegistry\SDKProfile.profile as a new repository)

Please address comments in [1].

Thanks.

Subject	[eclipse-dev] I build broken

It appears that an update to the new I build will leave your system in a broken state.
We are investigating the cause of the problem. https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=266881
