thanks nick! pretty good suggestions. I now sat with max and we decided to set the
dependency to the gwt sdk plugin to be optional. This allows existing installations not to
break as soon as new sdk's get installed. On the other hand this does not solve the
problem where new users try to install our facet and dont get a sdk plugin pulled when the
gwt sdk version changes (and the sdk we depend on disappears from the google update site).

Key: JBIDE-8012
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-8012
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: GWT
Affects Versions: 3.2.0.CR1
Reporter: Andre Dietisheim
Assignee: Andre Dietisheim
Labels: googlebug
Fix For: 3.2.x
nick, I thought about possibilities to remove the dependency to the gwt sdk bundle since
our integration plugin gets uninstallable as soon as google releases a new version. We
currently have no choice but to track their updates and release a new version.
The basic problem is that google had the great idea to include the plugin version into
the plugin name and that they remove old version from their update site.
I currently don't see any viable solution (optional dependencies dont help for new
versions; I cannot depend on packages instead of the bundle since their bundle does not
export any package).
Do you see any option that would allow us to trigger the installation of the gwt-sdk
bundle when someone installs our integration plugin?
