Hello,
During the oomph eclipse install I want to change the location of the .p2 so it is in a shared location to all users, (Example: C:\Users\Public\.p2). When running the eclipse installer I have to run using user2 with elevated privileges. When running eclipse it must run as user1 or user2 with elevated privileges. I want user1 and user2 to have distinct preference store (i.e. not shared). I found a form post (https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/681941/) that suggests using setup.p2.agent as an environment variable or VM argument for the installer but I have not been able to get this working.
Could you explain how to do this with the eclipse installer?

Sorry, I didn't mean to be offensive. I just wanted to set expectations. If you look at all my forum posts, you'll see there are now close to 30,000 of them and you can do a little math to figure out how many days that is if one knew how many minutes were spent on average per post. In the past I've been paid for that work, and the time only cut into my other open source work. But now the time cuts into my paid work, so I will on occasion need to limit the amount of time I spend answering.
Of course I really appreciate that you're doing interesting things with Oomph and I don't want to scare you or anyone else away. I also totally appreciate when you contribute helpful information, e.g., this Bugzilla post was super insightful:

Thanks.
