Comment 12 for bug 455911

I agree with Oded Arbel also. Unfortunately the obscure error in eclipse gives no clue at all to how to resolve the problem. I hadn't thought of installing eclipse-pde - I didn't want to develop plugins myself, just to install them. Perhaps a note could be added to the package descriptions (especially eclipse-jdt) that if you want to use plugins (pretty common behaviour) you need eclipse-pde. For info, I wanted to use eclemma.
