Bug#357301: eclipse randomly crashes, usually at startup

[César]

 I have tried eclipse again last week and it seems to work. It doesn't crash 
anymore, altough I am still testing it. I have updated many packages in my 
testing distribution since the last time I tried eclipse, so it seems to me 
that the problem was in other package.
 Important packages that I recently upgraded that could have solved the 
problem are: j2re1.4, libstdc++5, libstdc++6, libgnomeui-0, libpango1.0-0, 
libgcc1, libcsiro0, lsb-base, jikes, make, libdb4.4, .. Maybe if someone has 
the same problem, upgrading your system may help.
 So, it is OK for me to close the bug,
 Cheers,
 Quique
