Bug#385350: wish eclipse-cdt depended only on eclipse-platform (not eclipse-pde)

[CSights]

Package: eclipse-cdt
Version: 3.0.1-3
Severity: normal

Hello,
	Most importantly, thanks for maintaining eclipse in the debian package 
system!
	Would it be possible to have eclipse-cdt depend only on eclipse-platform 
rather than eclipse-pde?
	The C++ plugin from the eclipse.org website can be setup to run with only 
the "platform runtime binary" installed.  From the eclipse website:
"
Platform Runtime Binary

These drops contain only the Eclipse Platform with user documentation and no 
source and no programmer documentation. The Java development tools and 
Plug-in Development Environment are NOT included. You can use these drops to 
help you package your tool plug-ins for redistribution when you don't want to 
ship the entire SDK.
"
	This sounds equivalent to the debian package "eclipse-platform", so it seems 
as though eclipse-cdt could depend only on "eclipse-platform".
	Benefits:  Simpliar C++ IDE b/c won't have ignore the Java and plugin 
development menus installed with from eclipse-pde and eclipse-jdt.  Smaller 
download and install size.

Thanks again!
	C.
