The nightly/luna symlink should be removed once master branch is used for Mars-based
development.
For Luna-based maintenance, the nightly/luna symlink should point at
builds/nightly/core/4.2.luna.
was (Author: maxandersen):
nightly/luna should be made empty once mars happens and if we start up again point to the
luna/ ngithly branch build.
JBoss Tools Core Nightly update site fails to install if a new build
is published during install

Key: JBIDE-17536
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17536
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Bug
Components: build
Affects Versions: 4.2.0.Beta2
Reporter: Martin Malina
Assignee: Nick Boldt
Fix For: 4.2.0.CR1
When you install JBT nightly from
http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightly/core/master/ into Eclipse and during
the build, a new nightly build replaces the old one, you can get a failure like this:
{code}http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightly/core/master/features/org.jboss.tools.wtp.runtimes.tomcat.feature_1.1.0.Beta3-v20140603-0027-B526.jar
cannot be found{code}
This is because during your install, the old jars were replaced with the new jars, i.e.
different filenames.
I'm not sure if it's something we really need to fix, it's open for
discussion. But it happened to me yesterday and it wasn't the first time, so I'm
throwing it on the table.
Nick offered this alternative:
install from a specific build folder instead of the "latest nightly"
http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/builds/nightly/core/master/2014-06-0...
http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/builds/nightly/core/master/2014-06-0...
But obviously that's just a workaround, not a real solution.
One way this could be achieved is this: plugins/ and features/ would contain jars from
both the latest and previous builds. This way if you start installing (latest=build N) and
in the middle of your installation there is a new build (N+1), there would still be jars
for both N and N+1 builds.
