Uninterpretable Eclipse Error when installing m2eclipse - eclipse

When trying to install the current version of m2eclipse (0.12.1.20110112-1712) I get an error which doesn't really help me:
Cannot complete the install because of a conflicting dependency.

My Eclipse version is 3.5.2 and I'm using it under Ubuntu. Maybe someone has an idea? Googling did only bring up error messages at the Eclipse marketplace without any discussion.

I wouldn't worry about Helios being unsupported on Ubuntu according to presumably Ubuntu. Helios is well supported on pretty much all flavors of Linux by the Eclipse community.
If you do want to try installing m2eclipse into your existing Eclipse 3.5 "Galileo" installation, try unchecking the checkbox that reads something like "consult all available update sites" on the screen where you enter m2eclipse update site URL.

The solution is to install Eclipse 3.6 (Helios), which is not officially supported by Ubuntu 10.04. Now, m2eclipse could be installed without a problem.
This is not the most optimal solution, but at least it works now.

Failing to install Gradle IDE Pack 3.8.x+1.0.x on Eclipse 2020-06

I use Eclipse 2020-06 and Java 8. From what I understand I would need minimum Java 11.
Is there a way to overgo that without using Java 11? We have to stick to Java 8 for now.
Thanks for support.
Upgrading to JDK11 didn't solve the issue (alone at least). The BOSCH Language Server from the Spring Tool Plus-In must be uninstalled as well.

Eclipse dependency failure on Install of Salesforce IDE

I'm trying to install the salesforce IDE (Force IDE) on eclipse, and I get a dependency error that I don't know how to read. Can someone translate it for me, and tell me which piece I need to install? I've tried reading it several times and I can't figure it out... usually I'm not bad at doing this... must be getting old!

I'm on Debian Linux, running Eclipse Version: 3.8.1, Build id: debbuild
AFAIK, Force.com IDE based on Eclipse is not supported now.
As an alternative, you can try out JetForcer, IDE for Salesforce development based on IntelliJ platform or VSCode extension.
I just saw that Eclipse is on version 4.7 on their website. I think my Eclipse version is hopelessly outdated!
I'll update it and try again.

Eclipse install Web Development Tool: conflicing dependencies

Platform: Ubuntu 16.04, Eclipse Oxygen Committers (installed in /opt).
I am trying to install the "Eclipse Web Development Tool" package in Eclipse Oxygen, but got the following error messages.
I tried the following:
Deleted ~/.eclipse and workspace/.metata directories and re-installed the package again
sudo apt remove eclipse*
Completely removed the /opt/eclipse directory and re-install Eclipse again
None of the above attempts worked. So, how to solve the problem? Or, how do I completely remove Eclipse's configurations?

Any and all help appreciated.
If you want install eclipse pdt 3.4 on older eclipse releases you should use direct sites instead of simulates release update site:
PDT: http://download.eclipse.org/tools/pdt/updates/3.4 or http://download.eclipse.org/tools/pdt/updates/latest
DLTK 5.1.1: http://download.eclipse.org/technology/dltk/updates-dev/5.1.1/
After that you'll be able to install PDT 3.4 on eclipse 3.8
In the end the problem stemmed from trying to install a lot of stuff on an old version of Eclipse. This in turn stemmed from apt-get repositories that were not up-to-date. So when I tried to update my Eclipse I was told it was the latest version and I believed it, until greg-449 straightened me out.
Since I could not use apt-get or Ubuntu software centre (same thing) to install the latest Eclipse I just removed the installation and downloaded and unzipped Luna in a directory somewhere. I recommend this course of action if you are using Eclipse on Ubuntu.

Kepler is released and you can vote for the RFE at IBM to add websphere plugin support for Kepler.
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/execute?use_case=viewRfe&CR_ID=36925
The RFE is linked from the websphere developer forum:

Eric Peters announced in a Blog-post last Friday, that WebSphere Developer Tools V8.5.5.1 are available for Eclipse Kepler SR1 (4.3.1), and for Juno (4.2.2):
https://www.ibmdw.net/wasdev/2013/10/25/websphere-developer-tools-v8-5-5-1-eclipse-kepler/
Apparently IBM doesn't support Eclipse Kepler yet :-(
