Hey Jonah,

1. Please file a bug against p2 to request that touchpoint.natives.checkAndPromptNativePackage has better message to make it clear which bundle requires it. Add me on CC this is a topic of interest for me so I'll try to find time for it.

Done. Bug 558006 

 

2. It reminds of smth we added in the Dockerfile ls based editor (https://git.eclipse.org/c/linuxtools/org.eclipse.linuxtools.git/commit/containers/org.eclipse.linuxtools.docker.editor.ls/META-INF/p2.inf?id=5fe85e48934bfd7ff0758af378e0565f21b052b4). So do you have nodejs installed? Or maybe nodejs package name is different under debian? If there is package with name nodejs name installed and it's version is greater than 6 it should be a bug in p2 touchpoint handling.

It is indeed the dockerfile ls editor's p2.inf that is doing it. I do have node on my system, on my path, not from the nodejs package in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS because it is relatively old (v8) and I have many versions installed and managed with my .bashrc setting the PATH. The language server integration is working for Docker, so my user experience there is good.

HTH,

Jonah
