Let me say up front I've only had a few months' exposure to these tools so if you're about to ask me, "well, why don't you do it in the following totally different and far superior way?" I'm not gonna have an answer for that.

So the build process I'm supporting calls for assembling a packaging-time eclipse instance by 1) untarring the appropriate eclipse platform runtime and 2) loading it up with EMF, GEF, WTP, some other stuff using director. I inherited shell scripts that work like a champ to assemble the right prerequisites for 4.4.1.

My task now, for reasons I will spare you, is to assemble a heretofore unused architecture for Juno. Happily, I have zips of all the dependencies I need. Unhappily, the pieces are not going together. As far as I can tell, my immediate problem looks like this (line breaks for readability):

$ /path/to/different/eclipse -nosplash  -application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.director 
-metadataRepository jar:file:///foo/org.eclipse.cvs-M20130204-1200.zip\!/ 
-artifactRepository jar:file:///foo/org.eclipse.cvs-M20130204-1200.zip\!/ 
-installIU org.eclipse.cvs.feature.group -destination /foo/macosx/eclipse 
-profile SDKProfile -bundlepool /foo/macosx/eclipse
-p2.os macosx -p2.ws cocoa -p2.arch x86_64 -roaming 
-vmargs -Declipse.p2.data.area=/foo/macosx/eclipse/p2

Installing org.eclipse.cvs.feature.group 1.3.201.v20130116-085741-7B79FJKAkF7BG7ODH5CAJT.
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
 Software being installed: Eclipse CVS Client 1.3.201.v20130116-085741-7B79FJKAkF7BG7ODH5CAJT (org.eclipse.cvs.feature.group 1.3.201.v20130116-085741-7B79FJKAkF7BG7ODH5CAJT)
 Missing requirement: CVS Team Provider UI 3.3.500.v20120522-1148 (org.eclipse.team.cvs.ui 3.3.500.v20120522-1148) requires 'bundle com.ibm.icu 4.4.2' but it could not be found
 Cannot satisfy dependency:
  From: Eclipse CVS Client 1.3.201.v20130116-085741-7B79FJKAkF7BG7ODH5CAJT (org.eclipse.cvs.feature.group 1.3.201.v20130116-085741-7B79FJKAkF7BG7ODH5CAJT)
  To: org.eclipse.team.cvs.ui [3.3.500.v20120522-1148]


Well, that would seem to be a pretty straightforward message: I need com.ibm.icu 4.4.2. Except here in /foo/macosx/eclipse:

$ ls plugins/com.ibm*
plugins/com.ibm.icu_4.4.2.v20110823.jar
$ fgrep com.ibm artifacts.xml
    <artifact classifier='osgi.bundle' id='com.ibm.icu' version='4.4.2.v20110823'>


Which sure looks to me like the platform runtime I'm trying to drop cvs into does in fact contain the exact plugin director is complaining about. At this point, due to unfamiliarity with the tools, I'd be wondering if the error isn't that it's looking for com.ibm.icu somewhere else entirely, but like I say, when I try to put together the analogous pieces for 4.4.1 it works great.

Can anyone help me make sense of this?
