. We are now installing a real eclipse product.
. Only the jar files for the platform are built, dramatically reducing
the time necessary to build (thanks to the Fedora devs for the idea
and the basic procedure).
. Lot of small fixes to the build procedure to make future imports easier
. Some of the bundles are pre-extracted during install to improve
launching time.
. JDK 1.6 is required to build but any jre (1.5 or 1.6) can be used in
Preferences->Java->Installed JREs. JDK 1.4 is unfortunately not
supported at this time.
. Switch to x86_64 architecture name instead of amd64 to be more in-line
with mainline eclipse.
Note that after this update you will need to reinstall any plugins you've
installed with the built in Update Manager. This is a one time thing.

plugins. This basically means that Javadoc help and editor hover
links will work on Eclipse libraries when developing plugins and
SWT applications.
It requires some zipping and unzipping but at least we get the
correct tree installed (much like the available binaries for other
platforms).
