Package: eclipse Version: 3.5.2-2 Severity: important After a clean install of eclipse from sid, removing ~/.eclipse and creating a new workspace, I installed plugins for Maven[1], Spring[2] and Subversion[3], but neither of them were usable after installation. Thinking it might be a plugin failure, I tried to install PDT. Same thing.
I started eclipse with -debug, -console and -consoleLog. No stack traces, no warnings, nothing useful that I can think of. The osgi console does not show any of those plugins after issuing 'ss'. Lastly, I downloaded the eclipse tarball from eclipse.org and opened a new workspace. Installed the Maven plugin and it worked seamlessly. I've been surfing the web for something related to this, and the only place I found the exact same problem is http://tinyurl.com/ygobwb8, where it was fixed by removing p2 as he needed a single, not shared installation. I'm tagging it as Severity: Important as Java development nowadays is far more than writing classes and interfaces, and eclipse relies on plugins for almost everything it does. Please don't hesitate to contact me if I can be of any assistance. I honestly ran out of ideas, but not of willingness to get this working.
