Oh. ubuntu-bug send default bug as linux-bug. Sorry for that.

[Ky6uk (ky6uk)]

[Lucid]? I use last maverick.

[Benjamin Drung (bdrung)]

A newer version of eclipse (3.5.2-5) was uploaded, which fixes this bug. This version requires libhamcrest-java 1.1-8, which is blocked by bug #600626. Once bug #600626 is fixed, you will be able to install eclipse again.

[fejes (anthony-fejes)]

I am still getting this message, and both this bug and #600626 are both marked as fix committed. Is there something else that needs to be changed to install eclipse?

[Benjamin Drung (bdrung)]

That's because eclipse 3.5.2-5 isn't built yet: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eclipse/3.5.2-5

[fejes (anthony-fejes)]

Thanks Benjamin - I very much appreciate that you took the time to reply.

Just so I'm clear on what's going on, following the link you provided, it seems that eclipse 3.5.2-5 is waiting to build for AMD64 because it is dependent on the libhamcrest-java library (>= 1.1-8~). However, from the libhamcrest-java page ( https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libhamcrest-java/1.1-8 ), it appears that the libhamcrest-java package (which you uploaded the current version two days ago) will only ever be built for the i386 architecture.

That suggests to me that AMD64 users should just download eclipse from the web and not wait for ubuntu's package. Is that the best way to proceed, or have I completely misunderstood what's going on?

[Benjamin Drung (bdrung)]

libhamcrest-java is architecture independent. It will be build on i386 for all architectures.

[James Hogarth (james-hogarth)]

Testng was changed to the 'fix committed' state on the 15th July and version 5.11+dfsg-1 appears in Maverick Universe. However the last attempted build date of libhamcrest-java on the 27th showed the testng package as missing still... and this is the blocker on the eclipse package being built...

What's the hold up at this point? Should maverick testers just assume eclipse from the repos will not be usable and locally install it from the eclipse site instead?

[Dan Andreșan (danyer)]

even better, why not go for Eclipse 3.6 (Helios), release on 23rd of June?

[Benjamin Drung (bdrung)]

If you offer to fix a compiling error, we can try to get Eclipse 3.6 into maverick. Please talk to bdrung and nthykier in IRC channel #debian-java on OTFC if you have ant knowledge and like digging through big build logs.

[James Hogarth (james-hogarth)]

3.5 would still be beneficial in the repositories regardless of 3.6 for developers whilst the kinks are worked out on 3.6 ....

For example see http://developer.android.com/sdk/eclipse-adt.html where ADT is not yet working on 3.6 and google advise devs to remain on 3.5 for the time being....

IMHO the next release (11.04) would be better than 10.10 for eclipse 3.6 ... or an alternative package later on.

Sorting out the issue with libhamcrest-java (testng in universe and not main but a build dependency exists for libhamcrest-java on testng) would be more beneficial as that would get eclipse 3.5 sorted on Maverick now... probably better than a major version change now we are in feature freeze.

[Benjamin Drung (bdrung)]

libhamcrest-java has been built and eclipse 3.5.2-5 is building. It will take some hours (one or two days) until it will available in your mirror.

[Floyd Wan (fwonce)]

I have this problem after upgrade to Meerkat. Now I can't use my most-frequently used IDE, and I can't downgrade!

[Ky6uk (ky6uk)]

Currently I have:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 eclipse : Depends: eclipse-jdt (>= 3.5.2-5) but it is not going to be installed
           Depends: eclipse-pde (>= 3.5.2-5) but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

[Adnan Hodzic (fooctrl)]

Felex, ky6uk, solved the dependencies issue inside of Debian Sid, please give it some time until 3.5.2-6 enters Maverick

[Ky6uk (ky6uk)]

Will wait 3.5.2-6, okay. :)

[Benjamin Drung (bdrung)]

It built. Now give your mirror some time to fetch it.

Hey Family!

 Just wanted to2a3izp0 write yo75whhelmu, and let yozw9gkvu knoy5j8uw, hog53w the degsksyaree procd26igram I tried orpqdxzaxut went.
 Well, six weeks later, I graduated, finished & received my Masters Degr02yee with nob1z7f study required and %100 verifiable.

 Yeah monb0avm, I knoodfuw yovf5wtxku and Dad dopzwwu74jubted it at first, but this turned ozfvbrw3ut tobel9mselw6 be %100 legit. This oodppo9hc28ynjrtunity was given to8x3el me because ojkct8mf the prod8qmmpkfessio6bdkvnal experience and previowqf8mus coccvfurse wo9szmrk I had accumulated.

 I’m sovc8b33 excited moely8357el0m and dad, this was a life altering otaw3ydppowngc4ortunity & foel0r o1nnce in my life I toxxm7o7gcvdjn5k advantage ooxf it.

 I already have joiuelpy4b2bs, that wop3p10uldn’t have given me a chance befokydzre, nozwzww they are calling o050ff the ho6jasc5okutp3o1k! This really is a goqxo4xqdsend.

 Tell Susan and Coosh8y3zbusin Jo68xr72ey that they better hurry up and call that # I gave them the o23ther day.

 Again these are the degrea4oes they o035cc1ffer, BA, BSC, MA, MSdt6cw35mC, Mn5ahBA and Phmp8xu0boD, and the number toibcmmj call is 1-801-461-5023, tell them tovsz2b39n leave a brief message with their name, the degmk7z2three they are interested in and their day and evening phoqtu4y1ne numbers. They will cozjm5a61rntact yoi87y2rcmu so85jdmc89ovf77nfn after,

 Anyway, much lob1ve, and tell the rest otutajj3f the family I said hello6f8x5

 Lordtve,
