======== Eclipse ===========
I have posted several posts in regards to Eclipse and it seems that no one has
been able to address it.

I have complained that the latest Eclipse will not work. It does not even
come up at all and eclipse points you to your ~/.eclipse log file of which it
appears that PDE is not working and that there are several files missing.

I have completely removed eclipse from my system (as far as I can tell) and
then re-installed the BASIC eclipse offered via Package Manager and yet it
tells me the same thing, check the log files, same errors.

Can anyone tell me why there is silence on this? Am I in the right mailing
list (For users of Fedora) regarding Eclipse or do I have to report elsewhere
like (Fedora Develop Java) list which I did anyway whilst this mailing list
shows very little or almost no activity for several days?

Bug reports should be filed at http://bugzilla.redhat.com.

Yea, a bug report can be filed, but the root question still is: do the
Eclipse packages install a working app? Does anyone have it working?

BTW, I downloaded what I use (which works) from eclipse.org and is
Version 3.3.1.1, Build ID M20071023-1652. My system is a Dell XPS 1710,
Fedora kernel 2.6.23.9-85.fc8. I see the filename on the eclipse site
is "eclipse-jee-europa-fall2-linux-gtk.tar.gz."

I suppose someone would have to define working...I don't use it but it
did just now launch when I started it up. I don't know what to do with
it however...
