Well... IMHO, the "own internal update, plugin installation and dependency resolving system" is not that reliable. I cannot count the number of problems and workarounds I had trying to install several plugins with different (and incompatible) dependencies. It's so painful that most plugin editors also release a version of their plugin bundled with eclipse, to avoid its integration if you want to give it a try.
Also, I think that when you are a part-time developper, being able to install your workspace from clean distribution package, if you want, is a real advantage since you can focus on your job, and not on system administration/maintainance tasks. What's the status of other major distribution ? Most of them ship Ganymede (3.4)... so it seems to be feasible... or maybe I missed something ? -- Upgrade to Eclipse 3.4.2 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
