Description Michal Nowak 2011-03-24 15:23:00 UTC
Description of problem:

Sometimes, usually after initializing ~/.eclipse/, I can't see "New Project" templates provided by "plug-ins" (e.g. C/C++ provided by eclipse-cdt) in the Wizard. But sometimes I can...

It's more probable to hit this when updating from 3.5.2 -> 3.6.x, and when initializing ~/.eclipse/, however it's not 100% reproducer, sometimes it just works. It happens only once after initializing ~/.eclipse/, on second Eclipse start it works as expected.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

eclipse-platform-3.6.1-6.13.el6.x86_64
eclipse-cdt-7.0.1-4.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:

sometimes

Additional info:

I does not seem to be a regression, I saw that on 3.5.2 too.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2011-04-04 01:48:27 UTC
Since RHEL 6.1 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
exception or blocker.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the
next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 5 Andrew Overholt 2011-06-24 15:33:39 UTC
I suspect this is the same as the "having to start Eclipse twice to pick things up in dropins" which is caused by incorrect p2 metadata in the platform.

Comment 6 Michal Nowak 2011-06-27 15:11:33 UTC
In case of the zelo.englab.brq.redhat.com machine I was not able to see those dropins even after several Eclipse restarts, but the root of course could be the same.

Comment 7 RHEL Program Management 2011-07-06 00:31:26 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to
address this request at this time. Red Hat invites you to
ask your support representative to propose this request, if
appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux. If you would like it considered as an
exception in the current release, please ask your support
representative.

Comment 8 Andrew Overholt 2012-01-23 22:42:49 UTC
Should we close this, Michael?

Comment 9 Michal Nowak 2012-01-24 10:26:46 UTC
Unfortunately we don't have a reliable reproducer. Closing.
