When I try to build a headless PDE, I find the eclipse.buildScript step to display the following:

I understand that these packages / plugins are missing and / or optional dependencies. I don’t understand how some plugins are NOT found.
For example, there are many org.eclipse.XXXXX plugins that I believe will be resolved using the baseLocation property, which I set as follows:
<full_path_from_root>\pdebuild\target\eclipse
Where eclipse is my goal to build against and has all my third-party dependencies.
In addition, I also have a separate installation of eclipse, which serves as the version that initiates the build (for example, version 3.5.2 with PDE build files). The plugins subfolder in this eclipse has the missing dependencies listed above.
Thus, when trying to fix missing dependencies, whether they are required or optional, how are they solved during the assembly of headless PDEs? It seemed strange to me that I would have to copy the missing plugins from eclipse used to initiate a headless PDE assembly into the target \ eclipse \ plugins subfolder in order to try to solve this problem. However, when I do this, I get even more “missing required plugins”. Perhaps it just comes down to the fact that I need to continue copying the libraries to the target \ eclipse \ plugins subfolder until the messages disappear.
Many thanks to those who can offer any advice or suggestions on how to best solve this problem.
