After: http://hg.netbeans.org/main?cmd=changeset;node=2beb1fbd8baa the RepositoryUpdater should be able to handle package-info.java somehow. But, this change is neither nice, nor efficient (package-info.java will force generation of .class files for all types that were parsed so far, and these will be regenerated eventually). Hopefully, there is a nicer and more efficient way to handle package-info.java.
Resolved with issue #142848. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 142848 ***
