Kit,
Add
&protocol=http&r=1 to the URL. That will force http-only
mirrors and redirect to the closest mirror geographically instead of
asking to pick a mirror.

problems with these links. In order to install a URL as an
Orion plugin, it has to be:
-- a web page (FTP won't work,
and some of these mirrors appear to be FTP locations. In fact,
I keep getting sent to FTP even after choosing "HTTP mirrors
only".)
-- not have other pages in the
way (eg. "choose your mirror")
If you can get a direct link to one of these plugins on a
particular HTTP mirror, then it should be possible to install
into Orion straight off the mirror.

We are preparing for the release
of Babel Language Packs R0.11.0. Babel is now producing language
pack plugins for Orion. I'm thinking about the mirroring of the
Babel Orion Language Packs.
If I specify the following
(non-mirror) URLs, Orion installs the language pack plugins
fine:
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/babel/orion_language_packs/RC2/kepler/BabelLanguagePack-eclipse.orion-fr/babelEditorFrenchPlugin.html
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/babel/orion_language_packs/RC2/kepler/BabelLanguagePack-eclipse.orion-fr/babelGitFrenchPlugin.html
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/babel/orion_language_packs/RC2/kepler/BabelLanguagePack-eclipse.orion-fr/babelUiFrenchPlugin.html
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/babel/orion_language_packs/RC2/kepler/BabelLanguagePack-eclipse.orion-fr/babelUsersFrenchPlugin.html
However, if I specify the
following URLs in mirror format, I receive a message: "Plugin
handshake timeout for: http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/technology/babel/...":
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/technology/babel/orion_language_packs/RC2/kepler/BabelLanguagePack-eclipse.orion-fr/babelEditorFrenchPlugin.html
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/technology/babel/orion_language_packs/RC2/kepler/BabelLanguagePack-eclipse.orion-fr/babelGitFrenchPlugin.html
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/technology/babel/orion_language_packs/RC2/kepler/BabelLanguagePack-eclipse.orion-fr/babelUiFrenchPlugin.html
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/technology/babel/orion_language_packs/RC2/kepler/BabelLanguagePack-eclipse.orion-fr/babelUsersFrenchPlugin.html
Ken, is there a technically
reason why Orion cannot support mirror URLs for plugin
installation? Or, is it a bug that can be fixed?
Denis, can you think of any
solution to that on the Babel side?
