I think I've GOT IT! The "Cannot open (null) for reading" bug!!!


I traced it to this curious condition:

pkg.desired.sourcePackage()          == false &&
pkg.desired.sourcePackage().picked() == true

How? Well, it turns out that the defaultversion placeholder object used,
amongst other circumstances, when a package is has no source package, is
returning *true* to picked()!

Robert, how do you think this should be fixed?


Max.
