Hi again,

I didn't mean to offend you about pushing upstream, sorry for this...

I successfully booted Fedora 30 on my ODroid N2 and installed eclipse
without any issue at all.
I even managed to push it back to an Ubuntu Bionic by resolving the
symlinks pointing at /usr/lib/java/.. (populated by rpms in dependency) and
that worked like a charm as well,

Thanks at lot !

If I can help in any way... let me know,

Best regards,
