After I emailed the bug, I ported the ubuntu packages to debian, fixing a few problems with dependencies.
It takes about 1.3G of disk, 500M+ of /tmp and 100Ms of memory and 30+ minutes to build on system. and still isn't quite working yet: $ /usr/bin/eclipse /usr/bin/eclipse: line 4: /usr/share/java-common/java-common.sh: No such file or directory /usr/bin/eclipse: line 5: jvm_find: command not found which seems to be caused by using files in the java-common package from ubuntu (0.23ubuntu3) which are not in the debian one (0.23). I also think eclipse-ecj should Conflict: and Replace: ecj-bootstrap so that installing eclipse-ecj kicks out ecj-bootstrap. The resulting binaries I'm not wanting to host myself but 've put the diff I've got so far at http://people.debian.org/~dajobe/eclipse/ I'm not very interested in maintaining it, but as the maintainer of ikvm I'd like it build as ikvm's latest release now needs either ecj-bootstrap or eclipse-ecj to compile. I'm presently using the former. Dave
