Description Michal Nowak 2011-11-24 12:02:24 UTC 
Description of problem:

Martin Stransky (Mozilla maintainer) claims:

- eclipse-swt package also doesn't work at all. Java API has been
removed from xulrunner. 

It happens when one updates to xulrunner 8 (at least) -- the plan is to update to version 10 (long-term supported by Mozilla).

I was wondering what it means for Eclipse and whether is it sorted out upstream.

Sami and Alex will investigate.
Comment 22 Andrew Overholt 2012-01-25 16:26:01 UTC 
SWT gracefully handles problems with libraries against which it is linked so there's nothing to worry about here.  Closing.
