Description of problem: Doing "yum install eclipse-subclipse" on RHEL 6.0 installs Eclipse (Galileo) and the eclipse-subclipse SVN plugin. SVN plugin can then be selected, e.g., from Window->Show View->Other...->SVN. After doing "yum update eclipse*" from RHEL 6.1 repositories, Eclipse is updated (to Helios) but the SVN plugin is not available from Eclipse GUI anymore. The updated packages were: eclipse-platform jetty-eclipse sat4j eclipse-rcp icu4j-eclipse eclipse-swt Is there a manual workaround available to fix this or should an errata be released for this? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): eclipse-platform-3.6.1-6.13.el6
So it would seem that the issue can be fixed simply by installing eclipse-pde. This should be Required by eclipse-subclipse (or perhaps some other component which eclipse-subclipse Requires). Thanks.
Also, after installing eclipse-pde and doing: $ rm -rf ~/.eclipse ~/workspace $ eclipse SVN is not available. But just by restarting eclipse makes it finally available.
There's an issue in the p2 metadata for the Eclipse platform that requires one to start Eclipse twice to pick some things up. See also bug 698415.
I saw this on 6.0 back than too, so no regression. I'd suggest closing this one as dupe of bug 698415.

OK, then. Bringing back the keyword.
