Bug#665919: [eclipse] 3.7.2-1 causes locally installed software to be registered but not loaded

Package: eclipse
Version: 3.7.2-1
Severity: normal

- --- Please enter the report below this line. ---

The software I locally installed when using the previous version of
Eclipse seems to still be recognised by Eclipse - listed in the
"Installed Software" tab, on the Installation Details window, but none
of it seems to be usable.
E.g. If I want use the m2e Maven features, they are not available, but I
cannot install them as Eclipse thinks that it has the latest version of
these tools.
Checking for updates seems to update a collection of completely unusable
locally installed software!

Do I need to delete the contents of /home/username/.eclipse and start again?
