  1. I personally install eclipse by downloading the latest version as .tar.gz from eclipse.org and extract it into my home directory ~/apps. This works quite well and allows me to update via Eclipse update feature. (Don't forget to remove the ubuntu package for eclipse)

    I just need to add a menu entry to the eclipse binary: ~/app/eclipse/eclipse

    No additional changes are needed it works out of the box. Maybe this will also work for you.
