[news.eclipse.newcomer] Re: linux - root vs. standard user

Hi,

I started today with eclipse on Linux. I found out that you have to have
write permission on the installation folder and configuration folder.

This is really WEAK! All user related data should be stored in the HOME of
the user. :-(
But may be Eclipse is only a tool for Windows users.

Ciao
