Simos, you are not helping much either. Running applications as root is a no-go, no need to call a man a newbie. Just imaging every user of a thin client doing this -- sudo rights for everyone? No way! There should be a sane solution.
Eclipse should fix two things: installing updates to user directories and update manager preferring user directory to the system one. After that, every user can install and update his Eclipse as much as he wants, while the admin will install stable and proven updates.Then there should be some notifying the user about old plugins and offering to remove them from his user profile -- this would be enough for most cases. Still, these problems are in Eclipse and need to be addressed by upstream. -- Upgrade to Eclipse 3.4.1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123064 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
