The problem was temporary and was caused by issue 120537: a inconsistency between dev build and its Update Centers. It appeared with older dev builds and todays Update Center. If you install new one Development build the problem will disappear. I'm tracking the issue 120875, it's about a way how to make Autoupdate more robust and avoid same problem in the future. The problem is not valid for production builds like beta1, beta2 and future NB6.0. The inconsistency builds and UCs cannot be fixed. Btw, issue 120875 is fixed and Autoupdate is now more robust and it's able to resolve the problem like this. Verified, it is not possible to break IDE this way because there is check that dosn't allow installation in this case. |
