This is a part-time solution. We need a script which generates the master db file for the native jars of eclipse. This script is included in eclipse-base. a better script for this will be included in gcc-4.0 or java-gcj-compat soon. Then we can just call it from our postinst/postrm scripts in eclipse. Until this is done we need it in eclipse. The script needs a tool called gcj-dbtool. This tool is included in gij package. That is why eclipse-base depends on it for now. This will be removed soon.
