Hi Aron,
Tryed just to run eclipse from a terminal.
Got the same error (update failed) even after I corrected as you can see
below errors the terminal reported and I only voted such updates that do
not have a red cross.

~$ eclipse
searching for compatible vm...
  testing /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj...found
Could not create /usr/local/lib/eclipse/.eclipseextension. Please run as
root:
    touch /usr/local/lib/eclipse/.eclipseextension
    chmod 2775 /usr/local/lib/eclipse/.eclipseextension
    chown root:staff /usr/local/lib/eclipse/.eclipseextension
netfinder@desktop0:~$ sudo touch /usr/local/lib/eclipse/.eclipseextension
netfinder@desktop0:~$ sudo chmod 2775
/usr/local/lib/eclipse/.eclipseextension
netfinder@desktop0:~$ sudo chown root:staff
/usr/local/lib/eclipse/.eclipseextension
netfinder@desktop0:~$ eclipse
searching for compatible vm...
  testing /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj...found

Whats next? I am lost. Hope you can help to sort it out. Petr
