Fred Bricon commented on JBIDE-16574:
-------------------------------------

Max: [doc|http://help.eclipse.org/kepler/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc.user%2Fconcepts%2Fconcepts-25.htm] says {quote} "Optional features will only be installed if all their required features and plug-ins are available". {quote}

Anyway, after adding this {noformat}
   <includes
         id="org.sonatype.m2e.egit.feature"
         version="0.14.0"
         optional="true"/>
{noformat}

Maven build fails with {noformat} 
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-packaging-plugin:0.20.0:package-feature (default-package-feature) on project org.jboss.tools.maven.featur
e: Execution default-package-feature of goal org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-packaging-plugin:0.20.0:package-feature failed: Could not resolve feature org.sonatype.m2e.
egit.feature_0.14.0; Path to dependency: -> [Help 1]
{noformat}

[~nickboldt] stated in JBDS-2943 that it was added to the Luna M6 TP, so what gives?
