[jbosstools-dev] ACTION REQUIRED :: Please test using Tycho 0.18.0 to build JBoss Tools 4.1 / Developer Studio 7.0

[Nick Boldt]

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Tycho/Release_Notes/0.18

Other than some packaging improvements and updates from Kepler, there's 
this:

"(INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE) The build now fails if a p2 repository is 
referenced that has installable units from an old-style update site. 
These so-called "partial IUs" cannot be used for dependency resolution 
and used to be silently dropped from the target platform. This often 
lead to strange resolution problems (bug 380438, question on 
stackoverflow). Now the build fails with a clear error message. "
