Trying to UNinstall Mylyn Git integration, get strange error [message #1860575]

Using Eclipse 2023-06.

I've been using Mylyn in Eclipse for a long time, and I have an issue with it, but the issue I'm asking about here is not really about Mylyn.

I decided that some behavior I've been seeing when checking out new branches from git is likely caused by the "Mylyn Git Integration" plugin, so I decided to try uninstalling it.

When I selected that plugin and clicked Uninstall, I got an error dialog I've never seen before. it says:

Warning: Problem determining user request. Profile id: _SELF_, Selection count: 0

Although this is a warning, this effectively aborts the uninstallation attempt.

I checked the Eclipse error log, and there's nothing about this in there.

Somehow it thinks you have no IUs selected:

I suppose I could try selecting all of the mylyn entries and uninstalling all of them, and then trying to install all but that one. I hope that doesn't get me into more trouble.
