Public bug reported:
After installing Eclipse (), trying to start yields a popup with the following
message (example) :
[beginning of message]
An error has occurred. See the log file
/home/arnaud/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_3.8_155965261/configuration/1543766365512.log
[end of message]
Each trial actually yields a different log file (with a different number in its
name), but always with the same content, except for dates and hours in both
first line which look like launch and error times respectively to me :

Installed JDK and JRE are default-jdk and defaut -jre respectively
(currently openjdk-11-jdk and openjdk-11-jre, both for amd64), which
satisfy the package depedencies.
It seems the Ubuntu Eclipse package is not configured according to the
installed JDK/JRE packages, not even the default one it depends on. Its
installation procedure doesn't seem to try to configure Eclipse
accordingly.
