Take a look at the MS Windows DrWatson dialogs, that appear when an application is crashed. P2 could also use the bundles "Bundle-Contact" header to file an error report to it.<br />Also I would guess, if there would be a respository available that contains a bundle that exports this package, p2 would just install that bundle (and its dependencies)?Philipp Kursawehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01559531684494695413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2528245647272415122.post-41383693706695268622010-02-06T02:10:39.768+01:002010-02-06T02:10:39.768+01:00We have been looking for ways to enhance this, may...We have been looking for ways to enhance this, maybe present a tree representing the nesting of things. However on one hand you explain that the message is useless and confusing as it is but you still want to provide more information. Code on how to improve the overall presentations are welcome.Pascalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05469838363528861975noreply@blogger.com
