I assumed the removal of pack200 is a problem only for the NetBeans installer, but apparently NetBeans cannot even install older modules:

Maybe it should use a library for unpack? --emi --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@netbeans.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@netbeans.apache.org For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
