I think this should be solved by adding the wanted touch/chmod/chown commands to the .deb so as they will be executed when installing eclipse. -- Eclipse asks user to create directories as root https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112305 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 112305] Re: Eclipse asks user to create directories as root
A serious problem is that the error is not shown unless you run eclipse in a terminal window due to a bug in the eclipse starting script. A solution to this problem at least, can be found in the following patch. ** Attachment added: Fix to unnoticed error http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10438502/eclipse-startup-script-gusty.patch -- Eclipse asks user to create directories as root https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112305 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 112305] Re: Eclipse asks user to create directories as root
This is also true for gutsy after a clean install of the eclipse package (with sudo apt-get install eclipse). The message occurs (after starting eclipse in the console) with the default VM /usr/lib/jvm/java- gcj and with /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun (after modifying /etc/eclipse/java_home). -- Eclipse asks user to create directories as root https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112305 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'd like to state that I too get this. However, whether I create this file or not, I still can't actually run eclipse (See a href=https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eclipse/+bug/132338;Eclipse won't start/a) -- Eclipse asks user to create directories as root https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112305 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
