The The xPack install paragraph sample commad reads:

$ xpm install @gnu-mcu-eclipse/risc-none-gcc --global

It should be:

$ xpm install @gnu-mcu-eclipse/riscv-none-gcc --global

oops!

otherwise, did xpm work properly on your system? did you use the xPack... button in the window to set the path?

could xpm be used to install eclipse itself too?

good question!

in theory it can install any binaries, but the main target were the command line tools.

it installs multiple versions of the read/only tools in a central folder; when different packages refer to specific versions, get links to them.

Eclipse is a bit different, there can be multiple instances of Eclipse installed in various locations (it is recommended to install one instance for each main project or group of related projects), the instances are writable, and do not really fit the profile of xpm tools.

p.s. please do not use email for posting to this tracker.
