Title:
Eclipse not starting with org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Main.main
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException being issued after updgrade to 18.04
Status in eclipse package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in eclipse package in Debian:
New
Bug description:
I upgraded from 16.04 to 18.04 on Friday. Following some reboots and
updates this morning I am now unable to start the Eclipse IDE. This
was working before the upgrade.
I have the C++ developer support added to Eclipse. To the best of my
memory (and ability to interrogate apt) it is all installed from the
Ubuntu repositories.
When I click the Eclipse launcher pinned to my side bat I get an error
message from Eclipse that reads:
An error has occurred. See the log file
/home/thomas/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_3.8_155965261/configuration/1532947738216.log
Viewing the log file I see:

This is easily repeatable.
Some internet searching suggests this problem is present upstream as
there is a Debian bug that looks similar: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
