Install Eclipse Ganymede JEE SR1

This requires manual installation because the package repositories aren't up to date with this version.  On a single-user system, a reasonable way to do this follows.

  • Download the binary tarball Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers for Linux from eclipse.org/downloads/packages.
  • Unpack it in /usr/local/eclipse
  • After unpacking it within /usr/local, chown -R yourlogin.yourgroup eclipse
  • Create a symbolic link from /usr/local/bin/eclipse to /usr/local/eclipse/eclipse
  • Add it to the Applications -> Programming sub-menu via System -> Preferences -> Main Menu
