[Bug 480291] [NEW] unable to access jaunty eclipse projects

[N7DR]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: eclipse

I have a project that I was working on with eclipse under jaunty
kubuntu.

Now that I've "upgraded" to karmic, I can't find any way to access the
project. The "Open Project" menu option is greyed out; the import
feature doesn't seem to do anything useful [and I'm not even sure that
"import" is the right thing to do anyway].

No doubt there is a way to access the project, but it is horribly,
horribly non-obvious what this way might be.

(Naïvely, I expected that the project would simply open in the new
version of eclipse, à la MS Dev Studio; since karmic's eclipse doesn't
do that, users need clear instructions as to how to get to their old
projects.)
