Hi,

When I try to launch Eclipse, I see this console message:

searching for compatible vm...
  testing /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj...found

Afterwards, a dialog title "Could not launch Eclipse Platform" with the text
"A suitable Java Virtual Machine for running the Eclipse Platform could not be
located." is opened.
