Hallo,
I am setting up an Eclipse distribution with several plugins needed to have a proper IDE for an Eclipse Project (GEF).
When adding the plugins to Eclipse everything is Ok, until I install the Oomph Version Management Tool plugin.
After installing the Oomph VMT Plugin, from the next startup I see the below error:
Plugins contained in the Eclipse distribution.
As specified in the GEF contributor guide, the GEF-IDE consists of
After installing the Oomph Version Management Tool plug-in, at the next Eclipse Startup I see the following error:
An internal error occurred during: "Setup check".
USER_HOME
I was actually thinking my install was ok, but in bugzilla, I got that I did an "inconsistent installation" - see bug 473599.
Indeed, I checked in the About eclipse features for the Oomph, and I saw the Version Management Tool version is not matching with Oomph Setup Core , but only for a small "delta"
I tried to do an Update of the IDE using the Help > Check for updates, but I realized it is not a Complete IDE update , as suggested in the bug 473599.
So, I have two questions:
- how to perform a Complete IDE Update ?
- how can I make a consistent installation, by assembling the five plugins above, including the Oomph version management ?
Thank you very much for the time you're spending on my question.
I hope my question does not seem impolite or excessively complex.
Regards.

Hi Patrik,
The p2f file that you mentioned in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=473599 seems totally useless to me. It
locks in specific versions of the listed IUs, no matter whether the identified repositories will provide those versions
in the future or not. For example:
<iu id='org.eclipse.oomph.setup.feature.group' name='Oomph Setup' version='1.2.0.v20150720-0925'>
<repositories size='2'>
<repository location='http://download.eclipse.org/oomph/updates'/>
<repository location='http://download.eclipse.org/oomph/updates/latest'/>
</repositories>
</iu>
A P2Director task in an Oomph setup model for GEF seems like a better alternative.

I'm not 100% sure but I think you can't easily get out of this inconsistent state because the plugins that would do that
for you are also impacted. I would recommend that you create a new installation with Oomph's Eclipse Installer.
> how can I make a consistent installation, by assembling the five plugins above, including the Oomph version management ?
I would suggest that you put pressure on the GEF people to provide a GEF project setup model, so that you can just add
it to your install.
