The eclipse.org downloads seem to be compiled for Java 1.5 so it baffles the mind a bit when you say that eclipse is lacking features when compiled like that.
Please see http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.3-200706251500/srcIn... : "For the platforms were JDK 1.6 support is not yet available e.g linux-gtk-s390, linux-gtk-s390x the Eclipse SDK can be built with JDK 1.5 in place JDK 1.6. To do that, please follow the following steps: * Edit the file build.xml: replacing the tags <property name="javacSource" value="1.6"> with <property name="javacSource" value="1.5"> and <property name="javacTarget" value="1.6"> with <property name="javacTarget" value="1.5"> * Remove code which compile and package the plugins that require JDK 1.6 currently: org.eclipse.jdt.compiler.tool, org.eclipse.jdt.compiler.apt and org.eclipse.jdt.apt.pluggable.core from the files features/org.eclipse.jdt/feature.xml and features/org.eclipse.jdt/feature.xml." -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

As we have java 1.6 on our distribution, I think it's safe to require it.
Submitted for STABLE.
Yes, java 1.6 is included in the distribution, but what about the dependency check? At present, the dependency check does not specify that eclipse will need java 1.6, so it's possible to install it without 1.6.
