This is a known problem with initial display of the wizard:
bug 309547: featured/popular URL returns 0 solutions
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=309547
If you click on a different tab or do a search, the problem should go away.

I'm not sure why you're seeing this problem, I'll look into it. I've created a bug to track this problem. You may want
to CC yourself on the bug:
bug 310480: Installation of the latest build into I20100423-0906 fails with exception
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=310480
Installing from a build off of the build server may not always work: these builds often rely on the latest p2 changes
and may also include untested code. If you want to get the latest and greatest, you can try self-hosting with p2
projects in your workspace, or wait until the next milestone build.
Regards,
David
