[jbosstools-dev] unable to install JBT M3

[Nick Boldt]

What version of java are you using to do the install? unpack200 requires 
Sun or Open JDK 5 or 6 - if you've got 1.4 on your path, and that's what 
Eclipse is using, then that might explain the problem.

If not... I'll have to take a look. packed jars SHOULD install from a 
zipped update site (it's packed features that often fail).

We might have to restrict that jar from being packed if it's one of the 
few exceptions that can't *consistently* be unpacked due to one of the 
many bugs in pack200 / unpack200 in Sun's JDK 5/6.

If you're using Sun JDK 6, can you try Open JDK 6 instead?
