bdrungAnAnt: pong07:46
AnAntbdrung: yes, I wonder why eclipse changed the naming convention for libswt* packages ?08:13
AnAntbdrung: is it intended that swt-gtk source package won't be updated anymore ?08:14
AnAnthmm, later08:23

nthykierAnAnt: Hi - I am not quite sure what the future of the swt-gtk source is. The maintainer of it is a member of the eclipse team as well and as I recall, he did the renaming of the swt packages from eclipse. I never questioned his reasons for this.14:38
AnAntI think you mean Adrian, I talked to him on OFTC, and he told me to file a bug on LP against eclipse, so that's what I did14:39
nthykierAnAnt: for the rename of the eclipse binary swt package when he did it himself?14:42
AnAnt15:57 <blackxored> seems like we took that approach since they were pushing into maintaining a single copy of swt-gtk, the eclipse one14:44
AnAnt15:57 <blackxored> it should be fixed soon14:44
AnAnt15:57 <blackxored> but you can get most of our attention if you file a bug against the source package14:45
AnAnt15:57 <blackxored> we would eventually rename binary packages14:45
AnAntso I filed the bug14:46
nthykierAnAnt: Hmm, thanks for the clarification.14:47
AnAntbut since then, I've been getting comments on the LP bug that gave me the impression that eclipse won't revert back the naming convention for libswt* packages14:49
nthykierAnAnt: I do not mind renaming back the packages to their original name (again I never saw the reason for renaming in the first place).14:52
nthykierAnAnt: I admit that I hope that the swt provided by eclipse will eventually replace the swt-gtk source package and will love to fix the other problem you reported (the SWTError)14:53
AnAntfine with me, but I hope that both Ubuntu & Debian have a unified (or at least compatible) approach regarding eclipse & swt-gtk15:00
nthykierAnAnt: Don't worry, we intend to maintain eclipse in Debian as well.15:02
