This is a part-time solution. We need a script which generates the
master db file for the native jars of eclipse. This script is included
in eclipse-base. a better script for this will be included in gcc-4.0 or
java-gcj-compat soon. Then we can just call it from our postinst/postrm
scripts in eclipse. Until this is done we need it in eclipse. The script
needs a tool called gcj-dbtool. This tool is included in gij package.
That is why eclipse-base depends on it for now. This will be removed
soon.


Cheers,
Michael
