I've managed to look at it a bit and this has partially been fixed in rawhide. Basically the biggest issue was that xbean subpackages had Requires on eclipse-rcp instead of eclipse-equinox-osgi. It will likely not solve the whole issue, but it will help a lot. mizdebsk is going to do an xbean update soon. -- Stanislav Ochotnicky <sochotnicky@xxxxxxxxxx> Software Engineer - Base Operating Systems Brno PGP: 7B087241 Red Hat Inc. http://cz.redhat.com -- java-devel mailing list java-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/java-devel
