Have the same problem. Seems root cause is a broken dependcy: eclipse-platform version is 3.8.1-11 it depends on eclipse-rcp version 3.8.1-11 which in turn depends on libequinox-osgi-java (>= 3.9.1).
But eclipse-platform-data expects libequinox-osgi-java version 3.8.1-11: $ apt-cache --recurse depends eclipse-platform | less eclipse-platform Depends: eclipse-rcp eclipse-rcp Depends: libequinox-osgi-java $ apt-cache show eclipse-rcp Package: eclipse-rcp Architecture: amd64 Version: 3.8.1-11 Priority: optional Section: universe/devel Source: eclipse Origin: Ubuntu Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-disc...@lists.ubuntu.com> Original-Maintainer: Debian Orbital Alignment Team <pkg-java-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> Bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug Installed-Size: 8094 Depends: default-jre | java5-runtime | java6-runtime, libequinox-osgi-java (>= 3.9.1), libfelix-gogo-command-java, libfelix-gogo-shell-java, libicu4j-49-java (>= 49.1-2), libswt-gtk-3-java (<< 3.9.0~), libswt-gtk-3-java (>= 3.8.0~), libswt-cairo-gtk-3-jni (>= 3.8.0~), libswt-webkit-gtk-3-jni (>= 3.8.0~), libc6 (>= 2.14) $ dpkg -L eclipse-platform-data | grep config.ini | xargs cat | grep osgi.framework= osgi.framework=file\:plugins/org.eclipse.osgi_3.8.1.dist.jar osgi.framework=file\:plugins/org.eclipse.osgi_3.8.1.dist.jar -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1754886 Title: Eclipse fails to start on fresh 18.04 installation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eclipse/+bug/1754886/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
