The GPL mentions whole works, and I have given my criteria of a whole work: Requires to run. The Debian Depends: relationship is also useful and mostly equivalent. I have not seen any other criteria which matches what the GPL actually says. As I mentioned before, I am open to discussion on what the criteria should be, but it does have to match what the GPL says. > The packages might ship on the > same CD, but that's as far as the link goes.

You seem to have missed it the three other times I mentioned it, but this discussion is about whether Eclipse goes in main, not whether it is distributable at all.
