Target Editor often fails to update locations [message #953368]

Hi

after I created a target definition (with update sites as locations)
with the target editor, resolved it, and set it as the target platform,
if I try to Update with the button in the Target Editor, this almost
always fails, saying that it cannot find some features (which are
actually available in that update site, both with the old version and
the new version)...

is it a known issue?

thanks in advance
Lorenzo

Does the target location have "Include required software" checked on?

My only guess is that some required installable unit is missing from the site.

I tried both with required software and without, and also for a very
simple target definition only for RCP (based on download.eclipse.org)...

it cannot even find org.eclipse.rcp.sdk.id...

here's an example of a target definition which I cannot update

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<?pde version="3.8"?>

<target name="rcp" sequenceNumber="1">
<locations>
<location includeAllPlatforms="true" includeConfigurePhase="true"
includeMode="slicer" includeSource="true" type="InstallableUnit">
<unit id="org.eclipse.equinox.executable.feature.group"
version="3.6.0.v20120522-1813-7P7OG2BFLWUl7UmbVUO9iCm"/>
<unit id="org.eclipse.rcp.sdk.id" version="4.2.0.I20120608-1400"/>
<unit id="org.eclipse.emf.ecoretools.sdk.feature.group"
version="1.1.0.201205150811"/>
<unit id="org.eclipse.emf.sdk.feature.group"
version="2.8.0.v20120608-0554"/>
<repository location="http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno"/>
</location>
</locations>
</target>
