Public bug reported: Binary package hint: eclipse
Install eclipse (on feisty), start it fresh, (with or without an .eclipse directory). (I actually created a new user to be sure there was no setting of my own influencing this). You'll get: Could not create /usr/local/lib/eclipse/.eclipseextension. Please run as root: touch /usr/local/lib/eclipse/.eclipseextension chmod 2775 /usr/local/lib/eclipse/.eclipseextension chown root:staff /usr/local/lib/eclipse/.eclipseextension ** Affects: eclipse (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- 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
