Package: eclipse
Version: 3.8.1-4
Severity: important

Hi, I have been trying to use eclipse for homework for an Android
application and I keep getting crashes with an insane frequency.

Upon inspecting the segfaults, I saw messages in my dmesg log pointing to
libsoup and I found:

    http://bugs.debian.org/705420

There, some workarounds are offered, but the final conclusion seems to be
that the bug is not with libsoup, with with eclipse itself:

    https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=710242#c5

The bug in eclipse is filed at:

    https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=404776

And a small patch is available at:

    
http://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.swt.git/commit/?id=b22a7d19afbe2a3811a0f8aa54c1e85d92c62a2c


Can we have eclipse rebuilt with this patch, please?

This would make eclipse conform to the libsoup API of not passing a null
pointer when one is not expected (a correctness argument) and would probably
make these insanely frequent crashes that I'm seeing disappear (a usability
argument).


Thanks in advance,

Rogério.
