Bug Description

Is Eclipse 3.2 going to hit the Edgy repositories? It's new Callisto feature (simultaneous releases) should ease the process of preparing gcj precompiled packages working well together.

Personally, I think it is worth giving a try, even if this would mean requesting UVF exception (upstream freeze is at 2006-07-13). However, I have no idea how complex could it be and if the time left to beta freeze (2006-09-21) would be enough to prepare it.

I know of no better place to request the package upgrade, thus reopening.

I wish it would be upgraded too. Visual Editor is a must have for me, and currently I´m not able to install it.

I've run into 5 plugins in the past week which seem to be 3.2-only, so I'm about to remove edgy's Eclipse-3.1 and download a new version directly from the website. It'd be really nice to get the new version in for Edgy, but if not then I really would like to see it for edgy+1!

Is it too late in the cycle for this to get into Edgy or is there still hope?

To be honest, I was really surprised to find that Edgy DOESN'T have 3.2. Who would still want to use 3.1?

It is likely to happen thanks to UVF exception filed in bug 67657.
