You can use the P2 repositories, by adding them as Sites in the Install
New Software or Available Software Sites in the preferences.
You can select an Archived site, and point it to the Zip. It will the
act as a regular P2 update site, and you can install software from
there.

I'll probably expose some
ignorance here, but I'm having some
problems using the new P2 repositories. Big surprise. Here's what
I do:
I go to the recently generated M6 download page.
It tells me I should be using the P2 repositories instead of the zip
files I've used for several years now.
I'm not sure what that means. :-) I guess I'm supposed to unzip
them and see what happens?
I unzip all the prereq zip files into an eclipse folder. I unzip the 3
zipped P2 repositories into separate folders. (Do I need to unzip
them? Not sure.)
Anyway, I add a new Target Workspace in my host workspace,
pointing to the newly unzipped eclipse directory. Then I add 3
Software Sites, one for each of the new P2 directories from the
P2 zip files. When using the wizard to add a Software Site, I'm not
sure which content to add. The WST repository has two options -
I guess I only need the "SDK" option(?). I'm not sure what I'm
supposed to do with the "Project Provided Components" option in
the JST repository.
Once I add all this content, I have a number of problems listed in the
Edit Target Definition dialog:
Under the WST
repository:
Cannot satisfy
dependency:
Cannot satisfy dependency:

Under the Dali repository:
Cannot satisfy dependency:

Software being
installed: Dali
Java Persistence Tools...
Compiling against this target workspace results in lots of unresolved
bundles.
Does any of this make sense? Can anyone help me fix these problems?
Thanks.
Brian
