I see in the target environments that Eclipse 4.5 supports SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 which only has 2.14 according to the package list <https://www.suse.com/LinuxPackages/packageRouter.jsp?product=server&version=11&architecture=i386&package_name=index_all>.
Who decides of this list of supported environment? If no-one is ready or willing to make the necessary efforts to support SUSE and its old GTK 2.14, why not simply stop promoting it as supported ? Also, how would Eclipse fail with a too old GTK ? If it fails with a nice error in a pop-up or in console saying "Sorry, you need at least GTK 2.18 to use SWT and Eclipse", then people know the reason of the error and can react accordingly.
