Solution

Until Zend update their bundled Mylyn version or decide on a better strategy you can install an older version which should be compatible with Mylyn 3.4.x . Top of my mind that should be 3.3.2, which is available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/mylyn-mantis/files/Mylyn-Mantis%20connector/mylyn-mantis-3.3.2.zip/download.

Update: I have installed a preview of Zend Studio 9 and it has much improved Mylyn integration. The latest ( 3.6.0 ) version of the MantisBT connector works just fine with it. See Zend Studio 9 screencast and Zend Studio 9 Early Access build #262 now available.

OTHER TIPS

Unfortunately Zend does not package Zend Studio using the recommended best practices. This means that other plugins that depend on Mylyn, such as Mylyn Connectors or Tasktop, can never be installed. Please consider filing feedback to them, asking them to fix this issue.
