Package: eclipse
Version: 3.2.1-4

Hi,
dont know whether thats a severe bug or only me being unskilled with Linux:

I installed the packages eclipse and free-java-sdk on Debian etch, all 
stable, all up-to-date.
After adding
/usr/lib/fjsdk
to /etc/eclipse/java_home Eclipse manages to display its blue 
StartUp-Dialog but then crashes with error message.

Running
$ eclipse -debug
gives the following output:

=================================================

Maybe eclipse wants another VM?
Or some more packages?
Or just a configuration problem?
