It looks like the user has some jboss-tools plugins installed that ultimately try to bring up the browser. When it come sup, the user sees errors regarding missing libswt-xulrunner. The call would seem to originate from https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-base/blob/master/runtime/plugins/org.jboss.tools.runtime.ui/src/org/jboss/tools/runtime/ui/internal/wizard/DownloadRuntimeLicenseFragment.java#L90 . The other interesting part to note is that the BrowserFactory is returning the Mozilla class, which could only happen if WebKit.IsInstalled () is false. 11:31 < k170> I keep getting an error in eclipse (luna), every time I try to download and install a new server runtime. 11:33 < k170> The error states that it cannot find libswt-xulrunner-gtk.so 11:33 < k170> as well as libswt-xulrunner-gtk-4430.so 11:34 < k170> I'm running fedora 21 64bit and I have no idea how to install those files !ENTRY org.eclipse.ui 4 0 2015-04-09 21:52:39.606 !MESSAGE Unhandled event loop exception !STACK 0 org.eclipse.swt.SWTError: No more handles (java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Could not load SWT library.

SWT xulrunner browser backend is not buildable against xulrunner versions shipped with fedora thus we do not ship it. Supporting it would require significant investment as xulrunner upstream breaks api with pretty much every release (3 months). This combined with Fedora actively backporting firefox(xulrunner is now kind of internal lib) will make rebuilding eclipse broken after almost every firefox update. Thus Fedora Eclipse doesn't ship xulrunner for years.
Mat, BrowserFactory.createWebBrowser() have to be changed to always "return new WebKit()" as we can't support mozilla. Would you please take care of fixing it in all supported branches?
This message is a reminder that Fedora 21 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 21. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '21'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 21 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 21 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-12-01. Fedora 21 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
Re-opening, this probably still needs looking at...
This bug is currently assigned to an unsupported release. If you think this bug is still valid and should remain open, please re-assign it to a supported release (F22, F23) or to rawhide. Bugs which will be assigned to an unsupported release are going to be closed as EOL (End Of Life) on January 26th, 2016.
