As we have seen during the provisioning workshop, the problematic of provisioning can be quite broad. In order help us make focused progress, we will first be working on install / update / uninstall of plug-ins since one of our goal is to replace the current update manager. The other focus will be on trying to use our own technology as soon as possible (a.k.a "dog"-fooding).
Scenario title
Install/Update/Uninstall software from eclipse obtained from an SDK archive Scenario description: The user gets eclipse by downloading an archive of the SDK. It unzips it and run it. It goes to the update manager UI and decides to install / update / uninstall plug-ins.
Simplifying assumptions
The "agent" is part of the downloaded SDK and it will be running in process. The plugins folder of the install is the plug-in pool. Metadata and artifact repositories are delivered as part of the archive. All agent data necessary to represent the eclipse installed by the SDK is delivered as part of the archive.
