Wait for a new version of eclipse, or use pactree to figure out which package to remove: $ pactree -r xulrunner $ pactree -r eclipse Or you can ignore (-syu --ignore ...) the eclipse upgrade, but I believe that will leave it broken, which suggests you might as well remove it anyway. Or you can compile eclipse yourself, against the current xulrunner - this is probably difficult, and might be a waste of time anyway.
