A bit late perhaps, but I (and several colleagues) use Eclipse on Gentoo 
every day at work.
We have all found the best solution is to download from the website and 
unpack it. The version in portage is very old (the 3.2 milestones are 
stable enough for everyday use) and its easier to manage and install 
plugins.


Eclipse is great once you've used it a little (even with our bizarre 
homebrew build systems at work) and its windowing toolkit looks far 
better than AWT or Swing.

 This one is not masked.

I know, however, I want the whole she-bang, the whole IDE.  A toolkit
doesn't help me too much...  : (  that is, unless I'm misunderstanding
this.  Under Debian Eclipse was just apt-get install eclipse and that
was it.  I don't know how I need to do it all in Gentoo.

I've got time though.  I only need this up by the start of school. 
School hasn't even ended yet.  I'm just getting a head-start, so don't
feel like you'll never hear from Lord Sauron again if we don't find a
solution.

I think that this means I have to change from -x86 to ~x86, however,
I'm not entirely sure, and I'm not certain of the ramifications of
doing this.

Actually, if it's for you using eclipse (and not many users on the computer 
using if) I would recommend downloading the latest version from the eclipse 
web site (it's only a matter of opening a tar file) and installing any 
plugins you like through their update manager. you'll get much more updated 
versions without having to play with /etc/portage/packages.keywords.

So eclipse sdk is what you WANT. :-) I think the ebuild names let  
people misunderstand some things... in my case it was so. But yes,  
you can also use the version from eclipse.org like Haim said, it's  
also O.K. and you don't have to play around with missing permissions  
for the plugins directory and so on.

Actually, it is the eclipse project itself that has made this so damn
confusing.  Take a look at their About Us page, and try to find
anywhere that it mentions an IDE.  It is actually a development
platform for building IDEs, or other applications built on top of a
bunch of smaller tools.

On their downloads pagethe main download is Eclipse SDK 3.1.2. 
You won't find anywhere on their downloads pages to download the Java
IDE, because it is all part of the SDK!

Yeah, oftentimes I miss the presence of a nice graphical package
browser like Synaptic.  Even if I can't install stuff using it, it's
still nice to just go shopping : )

It also included a more detailed description of the software.  There'd
be 3 or so levels of descriptors: the very short one, the medium one,
and the very long one.  It was very effective.

I just hear about it used a lot for making Java programs.  If it gets
too confusing, I'll just stick with KDevelop!  I just hear that
Eclipse is a Java-optimised IDE, and I'd like to use that instead of
ultra-compatible KDevelop (which I perfer for C/C++, and am planning
for use with bash as well).

 On their downloads pagethe main download is Eclipse SDK 3.1.2.
 You won't find anywhere on their downloads pages to download the Java

So the IDE is in the SDK?  That's... strange.

Well, I think we can all agree that the easiest to use [editor] is
nano[1].  However, I do appreciate the tools and automation offered by
a IDE.

1. IMHO, if you can't use nano, then you have some major issues.

Just a follow up:

Installed the SDK Package.  I have Eclipse now.

That's really weird...  calling your IDE a SDK...  I'm sure there's
some non-logic behind it...
