 Now eclipse uses gcj if we specify openjdk with /etc/alternatives/java
 to use, unless install default-jre-headless package, but it will be fixed,
 right?

 Yes, I want to pass options as VMARGS="-javaagent:/usr/lib/eclipse/plugins/
 jp.sourceforge.mergedoc.pleiades/pleiades.jar  -Xms40m -Xmx256m"
 to use pleiades plugin which makes eclipse localized. 

 About pleiades, I ITPed as "Bug#555846: ITP: pleiades -- Japanese Language package for Eclipse using Dynamic AOP, Pleiades"


 We can specify it as command line as eclipse -vmargs -javaagent:/usr/
 lib/eclipse/plugins/jp.sourceforge.mergedoc.pleiades/pleiades.jar -Xms40m -Xmx256m 
 but it seems to be painful for users. If we can use eclipserc file or so,
 I just ask users to copy example eclipserc file to their .eclipse directory.

 You said, via eclipse.ini, it means /usr/lib/eclipse/eclipse.ini file?
 Surely per-user basis setup is better, I agree.
