Reviewing the Debian equivalent people have suggested that: $ sudo apt-get install --reinstall libequinox-osgi-java
Could resolve the issue. Although some people note that it does not help. Others have recommended completely removing Eclipse as installed through apt and instead using the version supplied directly on the Eclipse CDT webpage https://www.eclipse.org/cdt/ I shall try both solutions this afternoon if there are no alternatives suggested that people would like me to try. ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #891956 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=891956 ** Also affects: eclipse (Debian) via https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=891956 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1784358 Title: Eclipse not starting with org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Main.main java.lang.ClassNotFoundException being issued after updgrade to 18.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eclipse/+bug/1784358/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
