I had the same problem. I can now start eclipse by doing this:
apt-get remove --purge `dpkg -l |grep eclipse|awk '{print $2}'` `dpkg -l
|grep libswt|awk '{print $2}'`
rm -rf /usr/share/eclise /usr/lib/eclipse
apt-get install eclipse
Eclipse now runs. The only problem is that it does not close when
closing the application (File-Exit):
25524 pts/3 S+ 0:00 /usr/lib/eclipse/eclipse -vm
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/bin/java -install /usr/lib/eclipse -startup /usr
I will open an other bug report for this problem.
