I just spent an hour figuring out how to install WTP, so I'm going to post this information here to help people searching for this in the future, even if the original poster is probably not interested any more.

Of course this is not directly relevant to the bug, since this method also uses Eclipse's update mechanism instead of apt-get.

The information is from here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EclipseWebTools

============================================================
WTP can be installed using Eclipse's own "Software Updates" mechanism: Go to "Help -> Software Updates -> Find and Install", select the "Callisto Discovery Site" and later the "Web and J2EE development" plugin group. Click "Select required" to automatically select all the dependencies.
============================================================

That's it, WTP is installed. Just don't use the "official" WTP update site.
