This is due to a typo in debian/control (Conflict_s_:). Either
remove eclipse-xerces first or change the line in debian/control.

There is a already a bugreport for this: Bug#190541

Background: the eclipse-xerces package didn't provide all the
functionality, which pde needed (you couldn't use plugin.xml
editor), so now the origional xerces.jars from eclipse.org are used
and included in eclipse-platform.

There is still another bug in eclipse-source, as there aren't any
actual source code zips. I've sent a patch for this to the
maintainer. If someone wants to try them, I will make the changes.gz
and dsc available from my homepage: www.katzien.de/debian. You need 
to get the source code from an unstable mirror (~40MB) and compile
yourself. See the README for more info!
