Bug#763994: eclipse: no java or c++ project available in file>new

[semmreh]

Package: eclipse
Version: 3.8.1-6
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,
I see no option for Java or C++ Project in File>New.
There is only: Project | Folder, File, Untitled Text File | Other...
This situation is on two machines:
-- fresh installation of eclipse
-- old installation, constantly updated by APT, by not used in two
years, fresh workspace

>From other bug reports i've learnt that sat4j causes probles but
after downgrading to 2.3.1-1 and 2.3.0-3 the situation is the same.

It's almost the same as bug 735096 (another architecture configuration and
package version).

But this leads rather to Equinox Provisioning Engine:
