JUnit 4 support missing

we need a java5 vm to build it (in the main section of the archive)

How can I install JUnit 4 support plugin in Eclipse once I have Sin's java running. Or do I have do install Eclipse from source to get JUnit4 support?

> we need a java5 vm to build it
can you perhaps attach a debian/rules file for building eclipse with java-*-sun? So one can at least get some *.deb packages to install.

You can get the junit 4 working by downloading the jar and installing it in the build path as a new library.

Actually, that didn't really fix the problem. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=343029

now that we have icedtea in hardy - can this be enabled again?

This bug was fixed in the package eclipse - 3.2.2-5ubuntu1

---------------
eclipse (3.2.2-5ubuntu1) hardy; urgency=low

  [ Flávio Martins ]
  * Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining Ubuntu changes:
    - Change maintainer to MOTU in debian/control.in and debian/control
    - Regenerated debian/control for Ubuntu.
  * Build-depend on libxul-dev instead of firefox-dev. Closes LP: #191586
  * Closes LP: #183137 LP: #67858

  [ Emilio Pozuelo Monfort ]
  * debian/control{.in}:
    - Move eclipse-source from eclipse's Depends to Suggests. LP: #67862
  * Commented out icedtea in debian/extra/java_home, since it doesn't work
    and makes eclipse not start if the user has icedtea installed.

Pardon the ignorance here (I'm brand new to working with ubuntu) but where can I find projected ship dates of packages? When can I expect the above package to appear on my system if I already have eclipse (e.2.2-3ubuntu1) installed?

jelias see this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates

I think this issue is related but I cannot tell if it is the same bug. The status of the JDT plug-in in Eclipse 3.2.2 (default in Jaunty) is:

Plug-in "org.eclipse.jdt.junit4.runtime" version "0.0.0" referenced by this feature is missing.

Please let me know whether I should submit a new bug for this issue.

This issue still exists in Jaunty. Plug-in "org.eclipse.jdt.junit4.runtime" version "0.0.0" referenced by this feature is missing. when installing Eclipse on a new Ubuntu 9.04 installation. I would be nice to get a fix without hacking the program.
