Can't get rid of jre in exported product [message #499044]

I picked up a project that was developed by other team. The project is currently configured to bundle it's own copy of jre on export.

For some reason, I cannot disable this. (Un)setting checkbox in .product->Launching->Execution environment has no effect. (Also tried to delete the whole <vm> element in xml view of the .product file).

There is no reference to jre dir in any of the build.properties files.

No jre copy is found among my source plugins.

Checked that on another computer - same result.

No matter what I try, the exported product always contains the jre.

What other options are there to make PDE/UI bundle the jre on export?

P.S. It may be irrelevant, but I would like to explain the reason why I need this. I suspect that 'incorrectly' bundled jre may have something to do with the following p2 update bug I am experiencing:

Seems that the root of the problem is in the org.eclipse.rcp feature I added to my product configuration.

I tried to create a simple test product configuration (based on feature) from the RCP mail example. If org.eclipse.rcp feature is included in my own feature, then JRE is bundled together with exported product; and conversely, if I just list required plugins in my feature, then there is no JRE.

So I assume RCP feature somehow makes PDE/Export bundle JRE together with the product.

I am using Eclipse Galileo SR1. I didn't notice anything like that in Ganymede or older versions.

Does anyone know if that is expected behavior?
