Bye, bye P2! Hello UM again!

Had enough. P2 gave me just too much headache.

Today I removed P2 from my two production Eclipse installation. What a relief…

Update Manager (UM) works fine, as it worked in 3.3. Installed AJDT, Q4E, SpringIDE, TestNG, AnyEdit, … without any issue.

At my last few tries, I managed to install AJDT successfully, but after it I locked myself out. At next install P2 were missing AspectJ feature, and were willing to do nothing.

I read somewhere that P2 will not let you install uninstallable or wrong software… well… no comment.

I still beleave P2 is “not an evil”, and it will turn out to be great. But now I think it came in to suddenly and with lot of missing features/bugs. – I know this is the best way to test it… :-) , and I usually happily volunteer in these kind of testings, but not arbitrarily.
