Hi,

Picking up a random commit about plugins problems, could all of those that have problem installing plugins try again with a clean
~/.eclipse directory and send me the eclipse log if there's a failure? I've not been able to reproduce any such problems locally.
Make sure that the main directory is not writable by the user that run the eclipse platform, otherwise it will create files that
will be left behind on the next update and probably break havoc. If you've run eclipse as a user that can write to the main eclipse
directory, uninstall eclipse first, manually remove the ${PREFIX}/lib/eclipse directory and reinstall.

Please let me know how it goes, I'd like to get everything ironed out before 7.3 hopefully...

Regards,

Steph
