Unable to verify plugins, then freezes #9471

What happened

Okay, so first off, I'm trying to install some old plugins to add Java ME (Micro Edition) support (I'm trying to program stuff for blu-rays...it's a long story). I have all the required plugins for this added to the Downloaded page, yet when I go to install them, I get this error:
Cannot complete the validation of downloaded plugins

The validation of downloaded plugins cannot be completed, cause: NBM /home/<homefolder>/.netbeans/30/update/download/org-netbeans-modules-javame-devicemanager.nbm needs unpack200 to process following entries: netbeans/modules/org-netbeans-modules-javame-devicemanager.jar.pack.gz

I don't know what this "unpack200" is, nor where to get one. Is this a bug or am I just stupid?
