Peter,
if you choose your ~/.eclipse dir to install the updates, you won't
have that problem. It occurs when you try to install the updates at
/usr/lib/eclipse or /usr/local/lib/eclipse. Try to add your user to
the staff group, it may fix this issue.
Nice to hear that they have fixed that problem, I most confess It was
been a log time sins I pulled it down via apt-get :). So I take it you
don't have any permission problems with neither the geronimo files,
process or eclipse then. I am currently running eclipse 3.3.0 but I had
the Eclipse Geronimo plugin on 3.2 hocked up on my geronimo directory
and I remember seeing a similar problem to the on you describe (in 1)
below that was related to file ownership on the geronimo tree.
I have never tried to do what you are describing in 2. below except
maybe by mistake when I forgot to shutdown G before starting it in
eclipse and has always considered it a fault made by me ;).
Hopefully someone else can shed some light on this for you?
thanks
Peter Petersson
thanks,
Rodrigo

I am also using Ubuntu but I stop fetching Eclipse from Ubuntu
repos as
there was issues with file rights creating problem when fetching new
eclipse modules via eclipse download manager. I don't know the
current
situation but I know Eclipse has set up a project, inviting linux
dists,
to try to overcome this type of problems. Maybe your problems are
related to process and file ownership rights ? I suggest you download
and install eclipse into /usr/local and make sure the eclipse user
have
all the rights he needs also on the geronimo files and processes.
hope this helps
thanks
