Eclipse-sdk-bin-4.8.0.ebuild

[corekartana]

I have tried to make an ebuild version of 4.8.0. I can get most working (it seems but needs more testing) but there are some errors that Eclipse highlights like:

1. Builtin LFS support not present/detected error is issued from the org.eclipse.egit.core
2. Org.eclipse.eclemma.internal.core.launching.AgentServer error is issued from org.eclipse.core.jobs
3. Internal browser is not available error is issued from org.eclipse.ui.browser
   ....and a lot more error that seem to be UI related.

I want to make it work but I need help/mentoring in getting the last parts working.

My code is:
File: eclipse-sdk-bin-4.8.0.ebuild

File: eclipse-sdk-bin-4.8.0-eclipse-bin

File: eclipse-sdk-bin-4.8.0-eclipserc-bin

I am starting to be sure that icu4j must be icu4j-58. The current Gentoo version is 56, so I will try to find out how to get it updated and not breaking to much.... Please feel free to help if you know something because I am just a beginner.

I suspect most of the unbundeled plugins are too old now. You could just comment the unbundling in
the ebuild and use one in eclipse.

BTW, the ebuilds above are inacessible, I just get Not Found when I click on them.

I have updated the links so they are working from my side now.

Yes, I can do that but won't that break the Java packaging policies here ?

I will try to package a newer version of icu4j and see if that doesn't solves the problems and then make a formal request for getting a bump up.

I meant for your own needs.
Thanks for fixing the links
