Hi Aleksandar,

Thanks for the quick response !
I tried to merge the aarch64-specific files from f30 rpms into eclipse.org's
linux x86_64 build with no success, resulting in
a java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.eclipse.swt.SWTError.
Not very familiar with the way dependencies are resolved on a OSGi setup

I don't have a fedora install yet, so I'm getting one now and will play
with it and see Eclipse work from their build.

Still, I guess I would be able to build from Fedora's (adapted ?) sources.
Shoudn't they push upstream ? What is missing ?

Thanks in advance,
