If that doesn't work either, then the problem is that unstable has a too new version of xulrunner for eclipse. If i need to install xulrunner-dev then a depend is missing. Mozilla people tend to change the interfaces at will which tends to break eclipse a lot. The most current breakage (also reported as a Fedora bug) is iirc still being discussed in upstream eclipse's bugzilla. then this depende should be versioned :? ___ pkg-java-maintainers mailing list pkg-java-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-java-maintainers

Agreed with all the above, but eclipse seems to have no active maintainer right now and the version in debian is trully ancient (the equivalent of kde 2.x). The best solution at this time is probably to remove eclipse altogether from debian until someone with the needed time and dedication can pick it up and bring in the current versions. Until then we 'd just be beating a dead horse, imho. ___ pkg-java-maintainers mailing list pkg-java-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-java-maintainers
