I ran a build from sources (I think ~ 1 day old) and started the IDE. I was informed that Experimental Java Hints was not compatible with current APIs so agreed to disable it. Then AU offered me a new version of Exper Java Hints as well as two other editor-related modules. I agreed to download them. The IDE restarted, and now a lot of exceptions are thrown whenever I try to open a document or (with a previous open document displayed) move the mouse; the IDE is unusable.
Created attachment 53695 [details] Log files from before and after restart
Worked around by manually reverting update: cp -v /space/src/nb_all/nbbuild/netbeans/ide8/modules/*.jar /space/nb/curr/ide8/modules Now AU status bar icon again shows that Editor Options 1.6 and Editor Settings Storage 1.12 are available as updates - obviously poisonous ones.
Looks to have been introduced by issue #90403 work, which I presume introduced incompatible changes to some API modules without correctly versioning them as incompatible?
It looks like I forgot to update spec version for editor/settings and use it for dependency from editor/settings/storage.
I hope it's fixed now. I updated dependencies on editor/settings to match its increased version and increased spec versions of affected modules to push them through AU. Sorry for the inconvenience.
