Bug#372880: eclipse can't start: problem opening page

[Arnaud Vandyck]

Package: eclipse
Version: 3.1.2-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hi Michael,

I have problem running eclipse in Etch (it was also the case with
Sid). When launching /usr/bin/eclise, I have the splash screnn, then an
error window appears with: "Problems Opening page". When I want more
details, I have: empty document, with no root element.

Do you have an idea about this problem?

This render eclipse package unusable for me.

Note: an upstream installation works with jamvm from Sid.

Cheers,

Arnaud
