Package: eclipse-rcp
Version: 3.1.2-2
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 9.1.2

   postinst creates the file /usr/local/lib/eclipse/.eclipseextension
which is not allowed by FHS:

   As mandated by the FHS, packages must not place any files in
`/usr/local', either by putting them in the file system archive to be
unpacked by `dpkg' or by manipulating them in their maintainer scripts.
