Thats still a question :) Ok, lets find out: having latest 2.1-4 packages, go into the eclipse-2.1 folder and type # fakeroot debian/rules clean # fakeroot debian/rules uncompress -> check what's in /source-tree # fakeroot debian/rules build -> check what's in /source-tree. There should now be the icon.xpm Hm, I'm not totally sure, what's happening here, but this seems like a bug somewhere... If icon.xpm isn't there, please do a cd source-tree; cp plugins/platform-launcher/bin/linux/gtk/icon.xpm ./ (This should have been done by ant...) Now do a cd .. ; fakeroot debian/rules binary If thats the only problem, it should build the packages now. Anyway, it seems that you didn't have the problem reported in http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=187542 BTW, it could happen, that you can't startup. This will happen when eclipse thinks that your arch is ppc and not x86. If that's happening, please try |eclipse -arch x86 and report back, if that helps. I will change the bootstrap script then... The arch is used to set the path to the swt.jars and so they won't be found if arch is not x86. eclipse -debug should also work, as this starts up java directly without letting the launcher setup the library path, but with setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
