I'm installing some Eclipse (Neon) plugins with the cli on Ubuntu 16.04. E.g.:
eclipse -application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.director -noSplash -repository http://download.eclipse.org/releases/neon -installIUs org.eclipse.team.svn.revision.graph.feature.group
org.eclipse.m2e.logback.configuration: The org.eclipse.m2e.logback.configuration bundle was activated before the state location was initialized.
Will retry after the state location is initialized.
Installing org.eclipse.team.svn.revision.graph.feature.group 4.0.0.I20160226-1700.
Operation completed in 497738 ms.
I wonder why this takes so long and what the "state location" is.
The Eclipse download servers were very slow this morning. New download servers are currently being provisioned to hopefully resolve the regular Tuesday morning slowdown (in short, every Eclipse installation by default connects Tuesday morning at 10am to check for updates).
That is another way of saying workspace. Obviously you don't need a workspace for running that application, but it looks like org.eclipse.m2e.logback.configuration is being over cautious with its warnings. I believe it is trying to set some setting for logging from your workspace settings, but because there is no workspace (state location) it fails and you get that info message.
