I have a patch for that. Available from the debian patches and in the eclipse BTS (search for 'Plugin dir in $HOME'). Mail me, if you want it. Content: * set up the main site (/usr/share/eclipse) as 'read only' * adds a new option to include new sites at runtime (-addsite <path>) Drawbacks: updatemanager (in 2.1) becomes mostly useless with this, as it doesn't recognise sites, which are setup via 'links' files (see below). You also can setup plugin location by using this syntax: /usr/share/eclipse/links/something.links |path=r /usr/local/share/ (note the 'r ', will expect 'eclipse/features and eclipse/plugins in there) Jan, debian eclipse maintainer -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
