Description Justin Haygood 2007-08-29 22:28:17 UTC
When attempting to use Eclipse Europa (bundled in the openSUSE Factory repos), you recieve an error when attempting to launch the application. It works fine after installing Sun Java 6.

1. yes, it should maybe require sun java directly -- Daniel, what would you recommend?

2. current eclipse actually crashes when opening the "Help->Welcome" screen. (see bug #293439). You say it works fine, can you please test if the welcome screen comes up correctly?

When i use the sun java 1.5.0 (64Bit) Package i run into Bug #305452 This is not only a dependency Problem. Eclipse states in (http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/moreinfo/jre.php) that 1.5 should be sufficient.

With the sun java 1.6.0 (64Bit) Package installed Eclipse starts but crashes later see Bug #293439.
