Looking at the current project plans for Eclipse 4.3 [1] and 4.4 [2], I see that the only platforms for which JDK 7 is used are: * RHEL 6 w/ Oracle Java 7u45 or Open JDK 7u40 * OSX 10.8 w/ Oracle Java 7u45 * Windows 7 w/ Oracle Java 7u45 Yet for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, only JDK 6 is listed, though it's available in their repo [3]. Is that intentional, or an oversight?

We're finding issues w/ GTK3 + Luna M3 so it might make sense to explicitly state whether you mean GTK2 (RHEL6) or GTK3 (Ubuntu). See also: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-16280

This has been dealt with in the draft of plan update 2. We're also discussing to replace JRE 6 with JRE 8, which should also work for Ubuntu, right? > Aside: also wondering which versions of GTK are tested w/ Ubuntu.
