Public bug reported:
I'm attempting to install eclipse so that I can write java source code,
but it fails installing with unmet dependencies.
I'm on:
Ubuntu 13.10, Release: 13.10
Linux localhost 3.4.0 #1 SMP Wed Oct 23 03:22:56 PDT 2013 armv7l armv7l armv7l
GNU/Linux
Here are the outputs of apt-cache policy and my terminal output after
that.
apt-cache policy eclipse
eclipse:

Candidate: 3.8.1-4
Version table:

(raring)babak@localhost:~$ apt-cache policy eclipse-platform-data

What I did:

eclipse-jdt not going to be installed
eclipse-pde but it is not installable
2. install eclipse-jdt
Depends: eclipse-platform but it is not installable
3. Install -f eclipse-platform
following packages replace it: eclipse-platform-data
4. install -f eclipse-platform-data:
eclipse-platform-data is already the newest version.
