[cross-project-issues-dev] Juno SR1 EPP updates stopped

[Markus Knauer <mknauer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I pulled the plug... until we understand better what we can do about it. Updates for EPP packages from Juno to Juno SR1 are disabled now.

There were severe problems reported by some MacOSX users who updated from Juno to Juno SR1 and seem to have lost there eclipse.ini. After some investigations I am quite sure that the problem is restricted to MacOSX only.

Here is the new bug:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=390756
Eclipse hanging after startup with OutOfMemory errors after upgrade

I think this is a reincarnation of this old bug:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=338310
eclipse.ini missing after Helios SR2 upgrade; fails to launch

Next step is to get some feedback, maybe someone can point into the right direction what has changed underneath. Even better would be a suggestion how to fix this problem this time.

Thanks,
Markus
