Is this the newsgroup to post a software update problem?

I am having problems with 3.1.2 and 3.2M5a, but the same procedure works
with 3.1.0.

Procedure:

Software Updates->Find and Install->Search for new features to
install->Select "Eclipse.org update site"->Unselect "Ignore features not
applicable to this environment"->Finish

---------------------------------------------------------
Result with 3.1.2 Build M20060118-1600 on Windows XP:

After Finish, Update Site Mirrors dialog appears. Select Eclipse.org
update site. After ok, Updates dialog appears. It is blank. After
deselecting "Show the latest version of a feature only", you can see
Eclipse 3.1.1 and Eclipse 3.1.2. Both have the following two items:

Eclipse FTP and WebDAV Support 3.1.0
Eclipse SDK Examples 3.1.1

Exactly the same if I choose ibiblio mirror.

This list does not seem complete. I am trying to find GEF 3.1.1.

---------------------------------------------------------
Result with 3.2.0M5a Build I20060223-1656 on Windows XP:

A dialog pops up with message "No features found on the selected
site(s). Choose a different site or site category."

This does not seem right.

---------------------------------------------------------
Result with 3.1.0 Build I20050627-1435:

I get a full list of features. Including GEF 3.1.1 that I am trying to get.

This is correct, so I'm not thinking it is a connection or setup problem.


Thanks for any help,

John

This is probably because in development milestone builds are not put on
the Eclipse update site. Only released final builds are put on the main
eclipse update site.

Thanks for responding.

I do expect some quirkiness with 3.2M5a, but not with 3.1.2. It is
listed as a "Latest Release" here:

http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/index.php

This seems especially bad since the 3.1.2 version is the one you
download from the main download page:

http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/

At the moment, this likely a person's first exposure to eclipse.
