What plugins are necessary to bring up Software Update in menu?

We've been delivering our product on 3.2.1 for a long time.  Now we've installed Ganymede, and when we run a newly built product, the "Help/Software Updates" menu item is missing.  If I include *all* plugins from the SDK, the item appears.  If I instead use the run configuration to compute/include dependencies, the menu item disapears from the newly built result.

What plugins are necessary to include in order to get "Software Updates" to appear in the menu?  Anybody?

(BTW, we're still using the old update site delivery model, not p2.  Still, including all p2 plugins doesn't solve the problem.)

If you take all the p2 plug-ins available in the platform feature and all the simpleconfigurator once and ECF ones that should get you what you need.
You can also find information on Kai's blog: http://toedter.com/blog/?p=27 or the p2 webinar I did yesterday http://live.eclipse.org/node/521

Btw note that p2 related questions should either be directed to the equinox newsgroup or the p2-dev ML (https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/p2-dev)
