Hi,

I'm trying to use the director to remove junit plugins from my
installation, the command I'm using is

<path-to-director>/director -uninstallIU org.junit -destination
`pwd`/linux_gtk_x86_3.6 -profile SDKProfile -purgeHistory

I'm seeing the output
Uninstalling org.junit 4.8.1.v4_8_1_v20100427-1100.
Uninstalling org.junit 3.8.2.v3_8_2_v20100427-1100.
Operation completed in 4358 ms.

but the plugins are still there. <install>/artifacts.xml still have the
plugins, and bundles.info also still have them.

Am I doing something wrong?

I know that this may break some dependencies, but that is OK for now. No
JUnit functionality is needed by my users.

Any help is appreciated.

If a feature or product you include specifies them, p2 won't remove them AFAIK as that would invalidate your installation configuration.

It think it's just not reporting that it won't remove them.

AFAIK, P2 always leaves you with an intact installation and you cannot
force inconsistencies.

The only way to get rid of JUnit is to go through the entire dependency
tree and remove all dependent components too.
