Make installing software easier

[Jaap Haitsma]

Binary package hint: eclipse

If you want to install google webtoolkit you also need dependencies. These are resolved when
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/galileo is part of your software sites. I propose to have
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/galileo in there by default that way it's much easier for people to install 3rd party software

Hi

We have fixed this for eclipse Lucid; I cannot remember if it was done in time for the Karmic upload or not. If this has already made into Karmic; this bug will be closed when I have digged out the changelog for eclipse in karmic-updates. If not, I will leave it open until we have determined whether to back-port this particular change or not.

Regardless, this is only done for users not having a ~/.eclipse (because we have to inject into files stored there and the absence of ~/.eclipse is the only way we have of knowing the user have not modified him-/herself).

What the h*** am I talking about, you are on a lucid system and your particular version is fixed.

Please see #460944, which I am making this a duplicate of.
