GitHub Mylyn Connector installation

If i try to install the GitHub Mylyn Connector, i get this error:

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
  Software being installed: Eclipse GitHub integration with task focused interface 3.3.0.201403021825-r (org.eclipse.mylyn.github.feature.feature.group 3.3.0.201403021825-r)
  Missing requirement: Eclipse GitHub integration with task focused interface 3.3.0.201403021825-r (org.eclipse.mylyn.github.feature.feature.group 3.3.0.201403021825-r) requires 'org.eclipse.mylyn_feature.feature.group 3.7.0' but it could not be found

- I could not find any other post with this error-message :/

I already installed EGit, and I also tried to install the Github Mylyn Connector with the Eclipse Marketplace but it didn't change anything.

I use Eclipse 4.3 for Mac OS X

Thanks for any help

The GitHub Mylyn Connector has been broken in the Eclipse Marketplace for at least a month now.

To manually install it, visit the EGit home page

http://eclipse.org/egit/download/

And copy the update link you want to use. I use the following:

http://download.eclipse.org/egit/github/updates

In Eclipse, go to

Help > Install New Software... > Click the Add... button

In the Name field type GitHub Mylyn Connector for future reference, and past the update URL in the Location field.

Click the OK button.

You should now see the Collaboration option, and you can expand it to verify that it will install "Eclipse GitHub integration with task focused interface".

Click Next, agree to the terms, Next, have Eclipse restart, and you should be ready to go.

After Eclipse starts up again, open the Task Repositories view > right-click in the view > click Add Task Repository.. > Choose GitHub Issues > Then continue on with configuring for GitHub and creating a New Query.
