Re: [texlipse-dev] Fresh TeXlipse install failure -- config issue

[Jay Damask <jaydamask@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi again, 

Well, I found a work around. I cannot say that this is the preferred method, but it does work. 

Via the Eclipse IDE for Scientific Computing page, via the Mac OS X (Cocoa) 64-bit installer, I installed Eclipse. 

Then, I went to the Marketplace, searched for TeXlipse and installed from here. 

My TeXlipse is now running. I'm not sure how helpful this or the last email is, but I am glad to have TeXlipse running again. 

Thank you and regards -Jay

Hi folks, 

First off, thank you very much for creating TeXclipse. It's the best LaTeX editor out there and I've been using latex for a long time. 

Then, I don't know if you prefer that I post to stack overflow or just write, and since the reason I'm writing is a detailed config issue, I figured I'd try email first. 

I have a new mac (macOS Majove, 10.14.5) and I looked to install Eclipse Scientific via the eclipse-inst-mac64.dmg installer. 

The short version is that the package 

org.eclipse.equinox.p2.metadata.repository

is no longer available at 

http://mbarbero.github.io/fr.obeo.releng.targetplatform/p2/

as specified in the EclipseTeXlipse.setup file. In fact, that github page to the link above gives a 404, as does mbarbero.github.io. A naive search shows this page:

https://github.com/jonahgraham/fr.obeo.releng.targetplatform

but the commit timestamps are years old (not itself a pb, but I have nothing to compare to), so I don't know if this is a fair substitute.

I'd be more than happy to pull, change the config xml and do a merge request, but I don't know how to test locally any change I make. 

Kindly let me know if you prefer that I post on stackoverview. In any event, any help is greatly appreciated. 

Regards -Jay
