retitle 507536 eclipse: fails to start due to xulrunner - workaround; disable welcome screen.
thanks
Hi Christian
Thank you for taking your time to report this problem as well as finding a
work-around. I believe you are experiencing one of #507536 (and #515747)
many forms (Namely because "XPCOM" is a part of xulrunner[1]). It may also
work to changing your user's "default" xulrunner (see #507536; comment 126
footnote 2 [2]) - though as I recall xulrunner 1.9.1 has become the new
default in sid, so you may not be able to this workaround any longer.
As for the "no support integrated browser"; this has its own set of bugs.
Suffice to say this warning is "at best" correct but has had quite a few
false-positives in the past. We will remove that warning on next upload.
Also I am not sure how eclipse handles "libgtkembedmoz.so", but if you
want eclipse to use it you probably want to use MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME - though
you will probably have to remove the symlink again. The eclipse wrapper
for 3.4.1 is not particularly well written (See #402340; comment 65 [3]).
To those of you following #507536 here is the work around proposed by
Christian:
