Same as there's a new version of Eclipse SDK (3.3.x) available...
Somehow I always questioned the idea of packing up Eclipse (which in
itself contains a rather strict package management including
dependencies and versions) in even another package management just to
having it installable via apt/aptitude/synaptic. After using Eclipse in
production for > 5 years, the only recommendation I still then and now
can give is _not_ to use the Eclipse that is in the ubuntu/debian
package repository but rather the one to be found at eclipse.org -
other way you're likely to pass away trying to, say, install Eclipse
plugins by both satifying the dependencies of ubuntu package management
_and_ Eclipse package management. No package management is bad, but a
"double package management" is not that much better...

Cheers,
Kristian
