Problems with installing latest Buildship snapshot release

Hello!

I am experiencing Buildship bug #984 that is resolved in a snapshot release after the latest main release. To get the latest snapshot for Eclipse 2021-06 (e4.20) I have added the following location to my available sofware sites in Eclipse:

https://download.eclipse.org/buildship/updates/e420/snapshots/3.x

When I try to install from this site I receive the following error:

Your original request has been modified.
“Buildship: Eclipse Plug-ins for Gradle” is already installed, so an update will be performed instead.
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
Software being installed: Buildship: Eclipse Plug-ins for Gradle 3.1.6.v20210823-0319-s (org.eclipse.buildship.feature.group 3.1.6.v20210823-0319-s)
Missing requirement: Buildship: Eclipse Plug-ins for Gradle 3.1.6.v20210823-0319-s (org.eclipse.buildship.feature.group 3.1.6.v20210823-0319-s) requires ‘org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu; org.eclipse.buildship.compat [3.1.6.v20210823-0319-s,3.1.6.v20210823-0319-s]’ but it could not be found

How can I resolve this?

Thanks in advance!

Hi! It seems like the compat plugin is not uploaded to the update site. I’ll investigate it soon.

There was a missing dependency in the build script. I’ve fixed that: https://github.com/eclipse/buildship/commit/c8dc27c5cd3aaf5258a9764ee3061286538b003d
I’ll let you know when a new update site is available.

The new snapshot is available. Can you please try installing Buildship again?

Thanks Donát! At first I did not see the link in you answer and was able to succesfully update to 3.1.6.v20210909-1001-s using update site https://download.eclipse.org/buildship/updates/e420/snapshots/3.x. I am also happy that bug #984 has gone!
