[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBDS-4175) RPM version: NPE after install from Red Hat Central

RPM version: NPE after install from Red Hat Central --------------------------------------------------- Key: JBDS-4175 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-4175 Project: Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio (devstudio) Issue Type: Bug Components: central-update, rpm Environment: RHEL 7.2 with RHSCL repositories available: * RHSCL 2.3 RC (http://download-node-02.eng.bos.redhat.com/rel-eng/RHSCL-2.3-RHEL-7-RC-1....) * update for RHBZ#1392095 (http://nest.test.redhat.com/mnt/qa/scratch/vkadlcik/eclipse/repos/rhscl23...) Reporter: Václav Kadlčík Assignee: Nick Boldt Priority: Critical Fix For: 10.2.0.GA Attachments: JBDS-4175_logs_first_half.tar.gz, rh-eclipse46-devstudio10.2.log.20161115-0953.txt, spring-ide-fail-aop.png, spring-ide-fail-list.png, spring-ide-fail-npe.png, spring-ide-fail-project-explorer-broken-package-explorer-OK.png, spring-ide-fail.png, spring-ide-view-fail.png, sw_to_install.txt, workspace.log, wst.xsd.core_diff.png I installed rh-eclipse46-devstudio-10.2-0.20161111.0219.el7.x86_64.rpm and followed Nick's scenario [1]. In Red Hat Central, I clicked "Select All" (it found 36 items), then "Install/Update", did all the confirmations, including a restart. After the restart, Eclipse died on java.lang.NullPointerException. I'm attaching the workspace log (aside from the NPE, it's full of "Could not resolve module"). I reproduced the problem several times on two different machines. The update for RHBZ#1392095 (rh-eclipse46-eclipse-4.6.1-2.4.el7) isn't necessary, it just makes the reproduction much faster. Not sure how related it is, but rh-eclipse46 disallows updating packages installed from RPM [2]. But in the list of software to be installed/updated, I saw, among others, EGit and Mylyn, which are definitely included in rh-eclipse46-base. In any case, I'm attaching the list, too.
