I recently installed NetBeans 6.8 after a fresh JDK SE (seperate) install (no previous NetBeans version on this computer), and tried to add the C/C++ plugin. The plugin manager informed me that the C/C++ plugin required 'org.netbeans.modules.dlight.collector.procfs' to install. I couldn't really find out how to install this plugin, or where to download it from and the manager wasn't doing it automatically (Sorry if I'm missing the obvious!). I couldn't continue with the installation, of course. Sorry if this is under the wrong component. Thanks!
I uninstalled NetBeans 6.8 and installed the latest stable build, the C/C++ plugin seems to install and run fine.
So... I'm closing the IZ. ;)
Steps to reproduce: - download and install 6.8 beta (Java SE Pack) - try to add C/C++ support from plugin manager => Cannot proceed because of the following error: Some plugins require plugin org.netbeans.modules.dlight.collector.procfs to be installed. The plugin org.netbeans.modules.dlight.collector.procfs is requested in version 1.0. The following plugin is affected: C/C++
Installer team, please, evaluate. Probably some dlight modules (procfs is the one added only month ago) are not tracked. The mentioned issue affects Beta bits.
In fact, this module (org.netbeans.modules.dlight.collector.procfs) is not been present in the catalog located at update.netbeans.org: http://updates.netbeans.org/netbeans/updates/6.8/uc/beta/stable/catalog.xml.gz http://updates.netbeans.org/netbeans/updates/6.8/uc/beta/stable/catalog.xml The strange thing is that it is present in the corresponding catalog which was built during the production build and stored on smetiste (builds/netbeans/6.8/beta/latest/uc/catalog.xml). So likely the issue of tool been used for administration of the UC stored at updates.netbeans.org.
I see similar error [1] when trying to install "EJB and EAR" feature using pre-Beta build #200910202101. Roberte, what is your opinion about it? [1] Some plugins require plugin org.netbeans.modules.javaee.api to be installed. The plugin org.netbeans.modules.javaee.api is requested in version 1.0. The following plugin is affected: EJB and EAR
Please note that this module is present in English catalog (on smetiste) but not in ML (builds/netbeans/6.8/beta/latest/ ml/uc/catalog.xml) one. So probably the issue of build system. Thanks Alexei for catching that!
Might be helpful: $ diff -r uc ml/uc 2>&1 | grep Only Only in uc/dlight2: org-netbeans-modules-dlight-collector-procfs.nbm Only in uc/enterprise6: org-netbeans-modules-javaee-api.nbm Only in uc/harness: org-netbeans-modules-apisupport-tc-cobertura.nbm Only in uc/ide12: org-netbeans-modules-versioning-indexingbridge.nbm PS. UC2 content is even more strange, looks like catalog is not even generated but that is the also true for all previous releases (6.5, 6.1) so likely by design: $ diff -r uc2 ml/uc2 2>&1 | grep Only Only in uc2: catalog.xml Only in uc2: catalog.xml.gz Only in uc2: extra Only in uc2: javacard1 Only in uc2: licenses
Content of the UC should be fixed. I uploaded the missing modules and regenerated the catalogs. It happened because we upload ML version of IDE NBMs when there is a release. But is seems, that the missing modules were just recently added and there are no localization files for the and therefore that are missing in the ML version. This is ML build feature - module are build as ML NBMs only if there are localization files for them. That's why there is such difference between uc2/ and ml/uc2

> This is ML build feature - module are build as ML NBMs only if there are localization files for them. Sounds like this approach needs to be changed as it caused this issue - how will it be amended?
The problem was fixed, I'm closing the issue. The prevent such problems the list of En and ML modules will be compared and if there is no translation for some modules, English version will be uploaded to UC.
