Bug Description

There are currently at least two dep. problems in Eclipse in Edgy.

1) Eclipse does not depend on (firefox | mozilla-browser) although it fails to start without it.

2) apt-get install eclipse on new install of Edgy. Now, running of Eclipse fails because it does not find usable jvm. It should be installed as a dependency, however it is not, because gij-4.1 (providing java2-runtime) is already installed and is not enough for running Eclipse.

Bug #68053 looks different to me. The problem there amd64 incompatibility, while this is just dependency stuff.

Just to add that I've just installed Eclipse on 7.10 (on x86_64) and it's still not automatically installing a JRE as a dependency.
