Bug Description
Which subpackages should we produce? Which files should be in each subpackage? What should depend on what?
We need to discuss and decide and then update the control.in / control files to contain the correct information,
as well as the .install and .dirs files for the subpackages.

The split in 3.2 debian package seems logical:
* libswt
** eclipse-rcp (depends on libswt) (see below)
*** eclipse-platform (depends on eclipse-rcp)
**** eclipse-jdk (depends on eclipse-platform)
**** eclipse-pde (depends on eclipse-platform)
***** eclipse (depends on eclipse-jdk and eclipse-pde)
But I have to confess that I don't understand the difference between eclipse-rcp and eclipse-platform (whether one is a subset of the other, and whether eclipse-rcp is a necessary step in this hierarchy).
